THE COVE DISCOVERY PROJECT
'Inspiring Change'
The project is set up to celebrate the lives of both wildlife and people in and around Churston Cove, Brixham, Devon.
This exciting collaboration of conservation and community creates opportunities for learning and sharing, all focused on ‘The Cove’.
​
We aim to raise awareness of this important wild space for both humans and wildlife.
​
This is a celebration of a unique haven of beautiful thriving habitats, peaceful beaches and vibrant woodlands.
Many thousands of people visit the cove annually. With continued increases in human and wildlife activity, we are looking to promote sustainable balanced ecosystems and celebrate natural beauty for the benefit of all.
​
We emphasize transparency in everything we do, setting bold goals and pursuing a clear strategy that pushes beyond boundaries. The project is constantly growing and adapting to the changes of society and nature, and together we can create changes that will benefit all species.

TILL THE COAST IS CLEAR
Plastic free shorelines - Oceans of possibility
Till the Coast is Clear is a Community Interest Company striving to make the world a better place, one piece of plastic and one happy soul at a time. We regenerate places and people by clearing shorelines of plastic pollution using special recyclable boats and a fleet of kayaks made from recycled fishing nets, all crewed by volunteers, from all walks of life.
Improving the condition of our natural environment and connecting people to the great outdoors for improved physical and mental health is our mission, we call it ‘Active Regeneration’ and it works.
The scale of the challenges that face us all are daunting. Working together and getting stuck in is the only solution. So, let’s get cracking, there is lots to be done :)
