Our Shoresearch Walkover surveys are conducted under the auspices of the Devon Wildlife Trust who administer all data submitted to them by our leaders. On arrival at the meeting point you will be asked to sign in and agree to our disclaimer which essentially absolves us of any responsibility for any (unlikely) accident you may have. If you’re a paid up member of our Association the surveys are free; if you’re not then we do ask for a small donation, say £3, which is in support of our aims. Wear appropriate clothing and bring something to eat and drink if you want. It’s best to wear wellies if you don’t want to get wet feet. Bring a camera or smart phone to record any interesting animals or algae that you see. Your photos will be added to the record that we submit to the DWT.
