Conservation Council Community Campaigner Leah McGovern said, “currently less than 1% of WA’s southwest waters have any protection at all, we need a network of marine sanctuaries to ensure our marine life can survive and thrive. At Funk for Da Fish will be an awesome night as WA artists pump out their tunes in support of marine protection for our Southwest.”
Save Our Marine Life is a growing collaboration of organizations and individuals supporting a network of marine sanctuaries in Commonwealth waters off WA’s southwest coast. More information on the campaign is available at
