An All-Party Parliamentary Group is a politically neutral cross-party group of Parliamentarians concerned about a particular issue - in this case the UK fisheries industry.

Though they are run by and for Members of the Commons and Lords, many choose to involve outside organisations for advice and administration. The APPG on Fisheries has regular meetings within Parliament or online to discuss happenings within the UK fisheries industry, as well as listening to the thoughts of anybody with an interest in the sector. This includes receiving expert presentations and testimony from those working in fisheries, or on fisheries issues.

Our APPG runs a series of open Parliamentary seminars on key topics for the sector. To attend or get involved, keep an eye on our events page or get in touch.

The Secretariat services for the APPG on Fisheries are provided by Mindfully Wired Communications, a specialist communications consultancy working in the environmental sector. Mindfully Wired Communications delivers the communications, events management, and publications for the APPG. Mindfully Wired Communications produces an annual report and accounts which are published on Companies House. The APPG on Fisheries is funded by the The Fishmongers’ Company’s Fisheries Charitable Trust. The Fishmongers' Company supports the UK fishing sector and other non-fishery areas through philanthropy and grant-funded projects. We are committed to maintaining transparency in UK parliamentary and public affairs.
