Scarborough rocks!
Jul 13th
Our team has just returned from Scarborough Sea Life and Marine Sanctuary and had a great time chatting to all the visitors. The centre has a long history of rescuing and rehabilitating animals and our message of seafloor research and protection fitted in perfectly. We were excited to see the show advertised in the local paper and on local road signs, and would like to thank all those in Scarborough for making us feel welcome.
We had a mixture of school groups and families visiting us and they were all excited to see our ‘Please touch’ signs. Many of our visitors were from Scotland as the roadshow coincided with the Scottish school holidays. This was an excellent opportunity to reach a new audience and explain to them what the English seafloor is really made of.

Next stop, Weymouth!! This roadshow will be held from the 24th of July to the 2nd of August. See you there.
Scarborough Roadshow
Jul 2nd
Our team had a fantastic nine days at the Brighton Sea Life centre. Though we had to contend with the brilliant sunshine, a returning turtle and that football match, we had a great number of guests come through and explore the displays. All of our visitors were inquisitive and enjoyed learning about the seafloor and
the amazing things that can be found. The visiting school groups came up with excellent suggestions for where the archaeological artefacts could have been from and produced some colourful postcards which can be viewed here.
After a quick turn around the van is on its way to Scarborough. This roadshow is hosted by Scarborough Sea Life and Marine Sanctuary and will focus on the seafloor studies in the Humber region. If you are in the area drop on by and chat to our enthusiastic team or get hands on and explore the activities yourselves.
The Scarborough roadshow will run from the 3rd of July to the 11th.
