In June 2020 organizations from across the South West came together, hosted by Maritime UK SW to create an action plan to shift the dial on clean maritime in the South West. Since that time considerable progress has been made in fulfilling the plan created, “Maritime UK SW Clean Maritime Roadmap“.
This face to face (with the option of MS Teams) meeting will be an opportunity for the network to review and re-plan further actions to be carried out in partnership. In addition an agenda has been pulled together to help organisations looking to advance clean maritime to network, learn more about what is happening and opportunities nationally and also to obtain funding to progress their plans.
