100 Species

April 29, 2023  |  By Charlotte Johnson

Kelp or Oarweed (Laminaria digitata) – By Aberlady Cubs

Oarweed - Aberlady Cubs
Oarweed - Aberlady Cubs

The Aberlady Cubs made art pieces for three creatures. The leaders chose these as they thought it was something we could do collectively with sufficient variety that there was scope for all abilities within the group.

They learned that Oarweed provides a safe refuge for sea creatures.

We used recycled amazon packaging and straws. All are small handheld creations that the Cubs have taken home now.

Edinburgh Shoreline is an exciting, community centred initiative celebrating the city’s 27km coastline, and around the rest of the Forth.

We are rediscovering its fascinating and often unknown history and the rich plant and animal life that survives against the odds in unexpected places, and inspiring people to explore their coast and take responsibility for its future health.

 

 

We are very grateful to our current partners and funders

We are very grateful to have been supported and funded so well in the past.
