The largest seagrass restoration project ever undertaken in the UK has been launched in Cornwall as part of an ambitious £1.8 million marine recovery programme.

The scheme will see 10 hectares of seagrass meadow restored in Falmouth Bay, alongside efforts to rebuild native oyster populations across the Fal and Helford Special Areas of Conservation.

The three-year project, known as Mor Nature, is being delivered through a new partnership between the Ocean Conservation Trust (OCT) and Cornwall Wildlife Trust (CWT), combining expertise in large-scale seagrass restoration and oyster recovery.
