What can Turn Tides Offer?
Turn Tides have both long-term and short-term offerings that can assist all ages, events, and professions. All offerings are customisable to your needs, so get in touch with your ideas today!
Short-Term Offerings
Marine Touchpool
The most popular option! A workshop accompanied by hardy rock-shore species on display to view and hold. Get up close with sea stars, crabs, sea cucumbers, and much more! Includes marine conversations/facts with the audience and marine artefacts will also be on display.
Marine Artefacts
More cost-effective than the touchpool. A marine workshop including a table covered with facinating marine artefacts for people to view and hold. Everything from prehistoric megalodon teeth, whale bones, fossilised seahorses, and much more!
Tailored Workshops / Keynote Speaking
Workshops/Keynote presentations tailored to your needs and to your audience. Workshops can be for adults, young people, or children; formal or informal; hands-on or hands-off; online or in-person, depending on the event you wish to host. Get in touch to plan your ocean/water-themed workshop today!
Long-Term Offerings
Education/Project Development
Develop an education, climate change, or marine project that is linked to the curriculum (if formal education) or youth-work principles (if non-formal education). Can also align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and your organisation’s objectives.
Meaningful Youth/Community Inclusion & Development
Set up a youth or community board; a think tank project; a town-hall style meeting; or conduct a project/programme with schools, youth or local organisations, focused on any aspect of marine/water. Ensure the process is meaningful for both you, your organisation or company, and the people involved.
Fundraising
Applying for marine/water-based funding and want to strengthen your application’s language or impact with regards to youth, the community, social or climate justice, or ocean literacy? This is for you! Can also provide knowledge of fundraising opportunities and assist in application writing.

Testimonials
“Eimear's energy and passion for marine life and conservation has really inspired me to seek out ways to do my part to protect seas and oceans. Thank you so much for the amazing presentation and rock-pooling on the beach.”
Young Person
YMCA Finland
"Our young people absolutely loved Eimear's workshop, and so did our staff too. The minute she left, the young people asked if we could go to the upcoming conference she mentioned. I really feel the training opened their eyes and has them totally engaged for our upcoming projects."
Youth Worker
Crosscare
“I am so grateful to have met Eimear. Her wit and knowledge about all things sea-related (and somehow about everything else, too!) is truly inspiring. I really hope to work with Eimear again.”
