About the event

Join Cornwall Wildlife Trust and the associated Your Shore Network groups for a packed week of brilliant activities and events during National Marine Week!

From Saturday 25th July to Sunday 2nd August, we'll be celebrating and learning about our Cornish coastlines and marine life, why they're important and how to protect them.

Join Making Space for Sand and Budding Nature at Praa Sands on Thursday 30th July for a free workshop, for people to learn how to identify common plants and animals that are found in Cornish sand dunes.

We’ll start the day indoors, learning new skills before heading out to the dunes in the afternoon to try them out! Beginners very welcome.
