Impact
1. Hitting our charity education targets 2. A larger proportion of ghost gear being recovered by our divers by spreading out to new areas ie Norfolk, Shetland etc. 3. A greater proportion of ghost gear materials being recycled and kept out of landfill. 4. Promoting the idea that waste fishing gear from the ocean can be recycled here in the UK 5. Reduced damage to ocean habitat and marine wildlife and reduced animal suffering.

Reporting
Ghost Fishing UK surveys, analyses and records all activities. We give citizen science data to the Global Ghost Gear initiative and universities and our stats are measured every year for weight of ghost gear recovered, ghost gear reports from divers, animals trapped by number and type and this all forms evidence of the problem and the scale. All outreach activities and media reach is recorded and measured and engagement is summarised each year, with a threefold increase in engagement last year.
