THE IRISH CHAR CONSERVATION GROUP
The Irish Char Conservation Group was founded in 2000 by Dr. Fran Igoe and Myles Kelly to focus attention on the plight of Arctic char in Ireland. It is dedicated to the protection and conservation of the few remaining populations of arctic char in Ireland.
The groups objectives are:
- To promote public awareness of Arctic char and issues relating to their survival in Ireland.
- To collect and distribute information on Arctic char in Ireland.
- To encourage practical conservation measures
- To develop links with international organisations with interests in Arctic char.
