It is essential to educate children about the negative impact plastic and other litter has on our oceans and marine life. Proud to have been part of this important initiative to educate and inspire positive action towards reducing #MarineLitter @CefasGovUK twitter.com/ukinqatar/stat…

Successfully completed my Sea Survival training today! Thanks to for a great course (though could have done without the realistic cold rain during the practical). The sort of training you hope never to have to use but could save your life when at sea.
