Restoring Meadow, Marsh, and Reef (ReMeMaRe) Conference 2025

Scarborough, 9-10th July 2025

We are pleased to share that the abstract call for talks and posters, as well as tickets, for ReMeMaRe Conference 2025 is now open!

Building on the success of last year's event we will be returning to the beautiful coastal town of Scarborough to host this year’s event on 9-10th July.  We hope you will join us.

Call for abstracts – deadline 28th April 2025

We welcome abstracts which address one or more of the six themes of the conference, which are: 

  • Source to Sea
  • Cultural Heritage,
  • Restoring Together: Empowering Communities,
  • Restoration Science,
  • Restoration in Action,
  • Valuing Restoration. 

As well as the individual themes we have an overarching theme which we wish to explore: we have a keen interest to hear from projects and partnerships which connect the importance of restoration to the growth of the economy, as well as to people. 

Outline programme with detail on the themes can be found here. To submit an abstract for either talk or poster, please download the template here, and submit by email to conference [at] coastms.co.uk. 

Tickets can now be purchased here: Tickets

The conference will bring together restoration practitioners, government bodies, environmental non-governmental organisations (eNGOs), industry and businesses, with a shared vision to restore our estuarine, coastal and marine environment. An energetic space to exchange knowledge and discuss the latest developments in coastal restoration science, practice and policy. We look forward to welcoming you at this year's conference.

 

Previous ReMeMaRe Conference in 2024

2024's sell-out event was incredibly popular, attracting 300 people (17% increase from 2023), over 200 of which hadn’t attended previously! There were representatives from over 100 organisations, including restoration practitioners, Government bodies, environmental Non-Governmental Organisations, academic institutions, marine industries and businesses from across the United Kingdom (and beyond). We were supported by a record number of 16 sponsors, who were able to engage with delegates throughout the conference within an exhibition space, and we were joined by a sketch artist who brought an alternative view on each session.

The conference recordings can be found here, and copies of presentations and posters are available here.
