Morecambe Bay 2050 & beyond
New Community Survey
As part of the ‘Our Future Coast’ project, local charity Morecambe Bay Partnership, is inviting people from all around the Bay to share their views about the future of Morecambe Bay. They’d love you to think far ahead – to 2050 and beyond – and hear about your concerns, priorities, hopes and aspirations for your local place and wider Bay area, along with thoughts about our Bay’s changing nature, climate, and coastline. If you’d like to take part, please follow this link surveymonkey.com/r/VPY55ZH]surveymonkey.com/r/VPY55ZH or scan the QR code. It will only take about 5-7 minutes to complete and will be open until the end of February.
Photography Competition
Your community may also be interested in our charity’s photography competition, celebrating the Morecambe Bay area, that we currently have running – further details can be found here https://www.morecambebay.org.uk/what-we-do/stories/get-involved-with-our-2025-photography-competition.
Many thanks for considering this survey request & best wishes
