Seawilding's aim is to restore lost biodiversity, sequester carbon, create green jobs and mentor other community-based groups to do the same. We do this through the active restoration of seagrass and native oysters in Loch Craignish, Loch Broom and beyond, by training/advising community groups, providing volunteering sessions, supporting MSc and PhD students, school children/youth outreach and hosting a variety of different groups from artists to politicians to our projects.

Beneficiaries: 'No specific group, or for the benefit of the community'
