The SIF Marine Litter Working Group have developed a new website sifmarinelitter.co.uk
This new site will act as the focus for the activities, projects and data collection of the Working Group.
In 2019 the Scottish Islands Federation (SIF) identified that there was no group from the Scottish Islands that looked at the problem of Marine Litter which was coming ashore. SIF formed a group which consisted of representatives from the islands who were involved in beach cleans and marine litter removal.
The SIF Marine Litter Working Group also participates in responding to Government consultations on items affecting Marine Litter, promote the need for more action and link into advisors and research being undertaken.
