Two nature lovers have launched a new business to show off Newquay’s wildlife.

Laura Guy Wilkinson and Liz Clark from Newquay Marine Group have started Newquay Wild Activities, which will offer environmental activities led by local experts to paying customers.

The first two activities on offer will include a Rockpool Ramble and a Wildlife Walk.

The social enterprise community interest company will feed a percentage of any profit back into the local community, which will be used to subsidise disadvantaged groups to take part in activities. The business will link with local groups and schools to ensure this will happen.

Laura said: “We want to show Newquay in a green light.

“We aim to showcase the amazing wildlife that share our coastline. 

“The aim is by showcasing the wildlife that share the coastline people will be inspired and educated to protect and conserve it.

“Come along and be inspired and educated to protect and conserve it while having a great day out.

A percentage of our income will be put back into the community allowing Newquay Wild Activities to subsidise disadvantaged and marginalised individuals to partake in activities too. 

“We really hope we can make a difference.

 “Join us for an amazing day out, learn about the incredible coastline we have and the species that share our shores. Plus be part of a larger community network by collecting data, protecting and conserve it and help others to experience it too!

“One of our USPs is we want to make our activities bespoke, personal and inclusive. The activities will be in small groups of no more than eight and you can also book a private group if you would like.
