A few weeks ago, I saw a post by my friend and colleague, Emily Cunningham, about a huge project that she and her project partners just won. They developed the proposal for over 3 years and finally saw the results, over 2 million pound prize awarded to the project that would engage local communities in the Northeast of the UK with their Oceans. I invited Emily to come on the podcast to tell us why it's important to have projects that reconnect the local community with their Oceans. Have you connected with your coastline (lake or ocean)?
