MCS Plymouth Local Group

The MCS Plymouth Local Group is run by a committee of volunteers. Their support is invaluable - we could not run the group without them. The current committee members are listed below.

We are currently looking for additional volunteers to join the committee. If you are interested, please email mcsplymouthlocalgroup@hotmail.com.

	Dominic Flint Chairman of the MCS Plymouth Local Group Dominic joined the MCS Plymouth Local Group committee in 2006. He coordinates the committee members, chairs our meetings and makes sure that regular donations are made to the MCS. He has participated in many of our underwater cleanups and beach cleans.
	Amy Bugg Secretary and Beach Cleanup Coordinator Amy has been a member of the committee since 2003. She arranges regular beach cleans and an annual underwater cleanup on our adopted beach at Batten Bay, Mount Batten. She liaises with the local media to ensure that our events are covered in the press and this year has acted as a local spokesperson for the Marine Reserves Now! campaign and the Beachwatch 2007 report launch. She has organised several raffles and other fundraisers and has arranged a number of courses for the group. She also emails the group about our latest news and upcoming events and maintains the website.
