Turning passion into action

About Us

Ocean Advocate is a non-profit organisation dedicated to inspiring people from all walks of life to actively participate in ocean conservation. We believe every one of us can make a difference in our own way. Through our projects and events, we foster connection, build knowledge and enhance skills, empowering individuals to take meaningful action in protecting our marine environments. By equipping people with the tools and confidence needed to make a difference, we aim to build a community of ocean advocates in the UK who are committed to safeguarding the ocean for future generations.

“Together, we have years of experience in the outdoors, social entrepreneurship and conservation. We wanted to combine these skills, with our love of the ocean, to make a difference.

Now through Ocean Advocate, we can inspire action by bringing passionate individuals and groups together in our summits and academies and by creating a joined-up network of ocean advocates here in the UK.”
