Go Diving Show 2025 UK Stage Speaker: Luke Bullus
Divers are at the forefront of the fight for marine conservation, and Fathoms Free are leading the charge in Cornwall – find out more on the UK Stage at the GO Diving Show in March when Diving Officer and trustee Luke Bullus will be giving a presentation.
Fathoms Free is a group of experienced volunteer divers and skippers committed to protecting marine wildlife and the environment. They focus on removing ALDFG (abandoned, lost, or otherwise discarded fishing gear) and other marine debris from the coastal waters of Cornwall and Devon. ALDFG, often referred to as ‘ghost gear’, continues to ‘fish’ by entangling, trapping, and killing wildlife indiscriminately.
Since its inception in 2014, Fathoms Free has led initiatives to remove these hazardous materials from the ocean, preventing further damage to the marine environment. The charity also collaborates with and supports other organisations by using its boats and experienced skippers to assist with conservation efforts that contribute to a cleaner, safer ocean for everyone.
Over the past decade, Fathoms Free has become a leading advocate for healthier oceans, inspiring collective action to protect marine ecosystems for future generations.
Go Diving Show 2025 takes place at the NAEC Stoneleigh Park, Coventry, on the 1st -2nd March.
