Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page and supporting MCS.

I am attempting to cycle 57 miles on the London to Oxford Bike Ride to support the Marine Environment around our coast.

The UK charity for the protection of our seas, shores and wildlife

Our seas are under immense pressure: too many fish are being taken out, too much rubbish is being thrown in and too little is being done to protect our precious marine wildlife and vital fish stocks.

MCS vision is for seas rich in wildlife, abundant fish stocks and pollution free beaches and bathing waters – seas that are fit for wildlife to thrive in and for people to enjoy, and seas that will support future generations with abundant resources.

We champion the need for marine wildlife protection, sustainable fisheries and clean seas and beaches.  

Our many successes and campaigns to date include the introduction of Marine Acts to better protect our seas and marine life, and influencing sustainable seafood choices by major retailers and consumers through the Good Fish Guide.

We have also brought together thousands of volunteers in Beachwatch to clean our beaches of litter, and campaigned for Marine Reserves Now! to create safe havens for wildlife and fish populations to recover.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
