Coasts in Mind is a three-year project from MOLA. Made possible by The National Lottery Heritage Fund, we aim to empower communities to record the impact of climate and coastal change in some of England's most vulnerable coastal areas. cim.mola.org.uk
In our Poole Harbour region there are currently 60 stories of coastal change, from the impact of extreme weather to the changing soundscape of birds cim.mola.org.uk/map/records/...
Explore the map to find more stories of the impact of the changing climate on the coast #nlhf #birds #climatechange
We’re incredibly excited, our mapping platform is GO! It gathers evidence of coastal change by recording locals’ memories, postcards & holiday snaps – things which aren’t usually part of official climate change conversations.
Join us to explore the impact of climate change cim.mola.org.uk/map #NLHF
Three members of Upping the Shanty, an all female shanty choir, discuss climate change on the banks of Faversham Creek. Harry, the Coasts in Mind's Project Officer listens attentively.

A digital dictaphone with a mic plugged in, sits of a table ready to be used to record an oral history. Surrounding the dictaphone is a pile of books on the archaeology of Ainsdale.

We've been brushing up our field skills on Brownsea Island. Among the sites we recorded was this post-med brick kiln we first modelled in 2016. Looking forward to teaching some foreshore skills to our volunteers. Big thanks to @nationaltrust.org.uk for hosting us!

Hello world, it's nice to be here! We'll be helping communities map the impact of climate change on some of our most vulnerable coastlines. We're based in Sefton, North Devon, the Swale Estuary, and Poole Harbour. See how your coast changes and help record it.
Thanks to #NationalLottery players
