We are a small charity, recording all seal sightings around South Devon, putting names to fur patterns, ensuring the seals are watched well. We undertake regular surveys, & are always keen to have observers recording sightings, helping us in any way they can. We wish to share our seal stories with groups, clubs & educational facilities.

We work with a number of local & national groups promoting these amazing creatures. Alongside this most of our team are BDMLR Marine Mammal Medics.

Torbay Council funding cuts to conservation charity.
The Torbay Coast and Countryside Trust (TCCT) manages Torbay’s green spaces, woodlands, nature reserves, beaches and the SW coast path. The Trust has always been part funded by Torbay Council to do this, Torbay Council are now proposing to remove this funding without public consultation.The Trust cannot continue to manage Torbay’s green spaces as they currently do without this funding.The TCCT mission statement says it all – ‘to protect land, conserve nature and strengthen the bonds between people and the natural world of Torbay.’Noel Hughes, Countryside Officer at Berry Head National Nature Reserve commented “If you feel as passionately about Torbay’s countryside as we do then take action and sign the petition.” (CLOSES BY THE 15TH OCTOBER)

We run a community not for profit bus service every evening from Brixham to Furzeham and Wall Park and also an hourly evening service from Brixham to Kingswear. We are all volunteers and are always looking for more help, not necessarily drivers.
