Association Of Scottish Shellfish Growers

The Scottish Government has announced a £3 million support package for the Scottish aquaculture sector to help businesses threatened by the effects of the coronavirus pandemic.

A total of £50,000 is being invested to help increase the number of women working in Scottish aquaculture. The funding will deliver a mentoring scheme to support women already working in the sector to develop their careers, and a website to promote aquaculture and job opportunities to women.
