At ddipp we all love the sea – and we know our customers do too (OK we also know many of you love fresh water just as much!).
Because of our special affinity with water, we have partnered with Sea Changers to support their mission to give back to the sea.
For over 10 years Sea Changers have given grants to UK marine charities and non-profits for conservation and research projects. They specialise in tackling ocean plastics and grassroots action. It is really targetted action and makes a big difference to some of these local initiatives.
