This year we are so excited to share that we are planning to use the funds raised from Jingle Jam 2022 to support our work in Scotland, with three vital projects: [h3]Shorewatch Expansion[/h3] Shorewatch is WDC’s citizen science programme aimed at inspiring love and understanding for whales and dolphins by collating sightings of whales, dolphins and porpoises from the Scottish coast. We will support more young adults (18+) to participate in the Shorewatch programme and engage with nature, inspiring them to learn about the ocean and champion better protection for whales, dolphins and the planet.

We will also make the exhibition more accessible, thus allowing a wider diversity of children and people of all ages to enjoy and learn about whales and dolphins, and how to better protect the ocean and the planet.

WDC will undertake research and develop a campaign to drive positive changes to chemical legislation to protect whales and dolphins and stop species from becoming extinct.
