Notes

This information has been provided by the Sea Watch Foundation and is supplied in its original format.

Sea Watch Foundation is a national marine environmental research charity (No. 1013002), established in 1991 to achieve better conservation of whales and dolphins in the seas around Britain and Ireland by involving the public in scientific monitoring of populations and the threats they face, and by the regular production of material to educate, inform and lobby for better environmental protection. It has a unique partnership between scientists and members of the public forming the National Observer Network currently comprising around 2,000 volunteers and consisting of anyone who spends time either in a professional capacity or for recreation besides the sea.

Sea Watch has 35 Regional Groups in Britain and Northern Ireland, and its partner, the Irish Whale & Dolphin Group, has established 19 Regional Groups throughout the Republic of Ireland. The Regional Groups co-ordinate the activities of the public on a local basis, and are seen as a major way forward in involving the public.

Anyone with an interest in whales, dolphins and porpoises in UK waters can participate in Sea Watch activities, particularly its volunteer observer network. For training aids and other information, including a regularly updated review of recent sightings on a regional basis, consult Sea Watch's web-site.
