Fathoms Free is now a registered charity

Julian Collison

After a lot of hard work by the John, Nat and Jules as the Trustees, Fathoms Free is at last

a registered charity with the UK Charities Commission. We believe this reflects the commitment we have to improving the marine environment around our coasts and will also open up new funding options to increase the scope of our work.

Our charity registration is 1192613

Fathoms Free is a group of volunteer divers who protect marine wildlife and the environment for everyone's benefit by removing ALDFG (abandoned, lost, or otherwise discarded fishing gear) and other marine debris from the coastal waters of Cornwall and Devon.

ALDFG is also known as ghost gear or ghost fishing gear, as it continues to "fish," entangling, trapping, and killing wildlife indiscriminately. These trapped animals will die and act as bait, attracting more wildlife in a vicious cycle of death until the ghost gear is removed from the environment.
