Cromer Shoal Chalk Beds MCZ questionnaire

Agents of Change at Cromer Shoal Chalk Beds MCZ

'Common Ground' was a Community Voice Project involving a film and workshops in 2016. It explored local peoples’ values surrounding their local marine environment in the Eastern Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Authority (IFCA) district. The project revealed that people in Norfolk most desired improved local communication and engagement. Agents of Change hopes to address this issue at Cromer Shoal Chalk Beds Marine Conservation Zone (MCZ). This questionnaire aims to start that conversation with you and others who use the coast and sea around Cromer Shoal Chalk Beds MCZ. This information will be kept by the Marine Conservation Society and used for the development of the Agents of Change project and to inform policy makers.
