As part of our ‘Waters and the Wild’ webinar series, Clean Coasts speaks to professional underwater photographer Naomi Rose (from Ireland to Australia) and long-term member and chairman of Wexford Sub Aqua Club and Love Your Coast Photographer of the Year 2020, Ivan Donoghue.

For almost 20 years Clean Coasts in Ireland has worked with heroes around the coasts, individuals and groups that give great personal effort to improve Ireland’s coastline. We have recognized and awarded heroes every year that stand out with great achievements. Our common link is the sea and our relationship with it – taking away rubbish that washes in from it, and stopping rubbish get to the sea; life that lives within the water, and creating events for life beside the sea; tackling short and long term problems; and while educating people about issues around the coast, we create a lot of fun by the sea too!

This series is looking at individuals who brave the wild seas and, whether a sport or a hobby, people have mastered their abilities, won awards and tackled extreme challenges; for charities, competitions, or just simply pushing themselves further that they have been before. We will look at swimming, diving, surfing, and paddling and heroes within each. We hope to explore their personal stories, their challenges, their difficulties, and their successes What inspired them? An opportunity for volunteers around the Clean Coasts network of Ireland to be inspired by their heroism.
