Section D Achievements and performance
We continued to support our Beach Rangers with volunteering opportunities such as beach cleans and facilitating online training courses run by Cornwall Wildlife Trust and this year, we hosted a marine photography workshop for our beach rangers.
Grants achieved: we gratefully received a good grant of £200 from a local charity – Perranporth Gardens Charities to support our beach cleaning efforts. We also raised money from quiz nights at the local Bolingey Inn and are very glad of continued support from the new owners.
The group has contributed to conserving the local environment with regular beach and dune cleans, and this year we linked up with Dynamic Dunescapes to clean the beach. We also have produced illustrated sheets to use during our Litter Scavenger Hunt which aims to encourage children to litter pick at our beach cleans. We have had interest in local groups and companies who want to join us in our beach clean, for example, Truro Rotary Club Transition.
We have also assisted with surveying work on the dunes with Dynamic Dunescapes (Cornwall Wildlife Trust).
In terms of making the public aware of the natural environment of Perranporth, this year we held a very successful rockpool ramble during National Marine Week which was attended by more than 20 children and their parents, both local and holiday makers.
This year, we continued our monthly Seaquest sea watch surveys for marine ‘mega fauna’ which take place from Cligga Head on the first Sunday of every month, in conjunction with other marine groups. We were pleased to be joined by local wildlife enthusiasts, some of whom were students at Falmouth University.
We have posted extensively on our Facebook page to highlight our work, environmental issues and information about marine life. This Christmas, we published a ‘living advent calendar’ to showcase Perranporth’s amazing diversity of wildlife both at sea and on the dunes. We have also posted relevant information from other groups and organisations, in particular that of Cornwall Wildlife’s Your Shore projects and Dynamic Dunescapes project, and other charities such as British Divers Marine Life Rescue work and the Seal Research Group.
Much of the above can be seen on our Facebook Page - See https://www.facebook.com/Perranporth-Marine-Conservation-Group173493549967154
