Marine Conservation Society

Support this charity

The Marine Conservation Society (MCS) was founded in 1983 and exists to ensure a bright future for UK seas, sea life and marine wildlife.

The team works tirelessly to reduce the various threats faced by marine wildlife and they are continuously establishing vital marine protected areas so that wildlife can recover and flourish.

The charity works to clear our seas of rubbish and reduce overfishing which is devastating the life in our seas. In fact, the MCS 'Good Fish Guide' was launched in 2002 and has become the main reference point for chefs and consumers, alike.
