Off the back of our successful series of CPD workshops in April for Lancaster and Morecambe primary school teachers, we are back with another free funded coastal workshop with the fantastic Gemma Wren from NaturesGems Wildlife Tours.

📍 Jubilee Institute, Heysham
📅 Monday 13 July 2026
⏰ 9am–3pm

There are 10 funded places available, including up to £200 for teacher release time and £30 towards travel. Book here: https://www.trybooking.com/uk/GJSS

Explore Morecambe Bay’s coastal ecosystem through practical activities, discussion, and outdoor learning. It’s a great chance to gather ideas, connect with others, and feel more confident helping children engage with nature and climate action.

One teacher shared: “A fantastic course — relaxed, engaging, and full of practical ideas to take straight back into school.”

A MASSIVE thank you to all our volunteers 💙💙💙

This Volunteers' Week, we’re celebrating the amazing people who support Morecambe Bay and make a difference.

From volunteers who help to run our free mobility vehicle hire service around Morecambe Bay, we just couldn’t do it without you and your input makes a massive difference to those who use the service.

To volunteers in Birkrigg, who year after year, continue to clear vegetation away from ancient monuments keeping them off the Heritage at Risk register and accessible and enjoyable to the public.

To the community at Sunderland Point who give their time, energy and commitment to the ‘Our Future Coast’ project by engaging with this project so enthusiastically and helping to test nature-based solutions to combat flooding and coastal erosion.

Thank you for your commitment, energy, and the countless hours you give to support the Bay.
