About the event

What do bar­rel, moon and com­pass all have in com­mon? They are all types of jelly­fish found in UK waters, and if you spot any on your next trip to the beach, sci­ent­ists want to hear about it.

As part of its nation­wide project Jel­ly­watch, the Mar­ine Con­ser­va­tion Soci­ety (MCS) is ask­ing people in the UK and Ire­land to report any jelly­fish they see, either in the water or washed ashore. Our partners, The Bay, are hosting a family friendly information session on how to identify common British jellyfish species and how to report sightings to MCS. Come along after school for a fun and informative hour with Rachel to find out more.
