Joel James MS has today joined his Welsh Conservative colleague Tom Giffard MS to visit Project Seagrass at their HQ in Bridgend.
As the Senedd Species Champion for Seagrass, Joel was delighted to accompany Tom on this visit and continue to raise the profile of Seagrass in Wales.
The visit provided an opportunity to discuss Project Seagrass' programmes of work across Wales, the variety of jobs and opportunities within the environmental sector that their work supports both locally and across Wales, and the challenges and opportunities currently facing Seagrass in Wales.
Speaking after the visit, Joel said:
I'm very proud to be the Welsh Parliament's Species Champion for Seagrass, it's something that I don't waste an opportunity to highlight whenever I can.
As such, I was so delighted to accompany Tom Giffard MS this week to Project Seagrass in Bridgend. It's such a fantastic organisation and a world leader in seagrass research and restoration.
