We are Jersey Marine Conservation – run by volunteers, a proactive, legally registered and a Government of Jersey approved Charity.Our team strives to protect our marine environment primarily by gathering data in support of marine protection, on-going bio-diversity recording and associated research. As equally important, we engage the community through the Marine Watch schools program, in why Marine Conservation is so important, ensuring that our surrounding seas are valued, looked after and managed, to provide a healthy marine environment that functions as a living organism and a sustainable resource.The organisation is based in Jersey, Channel Islands and began as Jersey Seasearch in 2012. Our Island is a Crown Dependency with our own Government, laws, customs and unique identity. The marine environment is not protected effectively by UK laws or International treaties. No species living in our territorial waters are fully protected from over exploitation or harm. Even marine mammals, such as Seals and Dolphins, have little in the way of habitat legislation to safeguard their existence.We have won numerous awards for our work including the only Association of Jersey 50th Anniversary Award, UK National Biodiversity Marine Award, Insurance Corporation Award in 2014 and 2022.
