Yet another one of our committee members will be getting their Marine Mammal Medic certification this weekend!
This Saturday (the 24th) at Cramond beach our Secretary, Sara, will be saving inflatable whales, dolphins, and seals, from morning till the afternoon. Although there is, unfortunately, no more space to join the Training Course on Saturday, there will be several more opportunities to get your Marine Mammal Medic training this year. Definitely keep an eye out on their website for available courses.
