Valeport has supported seagrass restoration and conservation for a number of years.
Alongside our current sponsorship of ReMEDIES, England’s largest seagrass restoration, education and innovation project, we have also recently collaborated on a new, non-invasive method to monitor seagrass biomass on the seabed with partners HydroSurv, Natural England and the University of Plymouth. Read more about this innovative new method to measure and monitor seagrass here.
Since 2020 we’ve had an association with seagrass campaigns and we are proud to now sponsor the important, ReMEDIES project. The LIFE Recreation ReMEDIES partnership to ‘Save Our Seabed’ is a marine conservation project led by Natural England. It focuses on five Special Areas of Conservation along England’s south coast. The ReMEDIES project seeks to protect and restore sensitive seabed habitats and aims to plant eight hectares of seagrass meadows.
