What People Are Saying...

“The wet-room and supporting space widens the scope of courses and provides a range of delivery options, we intend to utilise the facility to train our team and take them to the next level in their journey, particularly where team members currently have to travel out of the region to access such training required.”

"The Seafood School will promote consumption of seafood to the public, supporting the local industry. These objectives align with our charitable trust's aims. As a founding SGHA member, the Fishmongers Company values the seafood industry in Humber and Grimsby, and the importance of providing training opportunities for the local community, students, and fishing businesses in the area."

"A well-operated Seafood School in Grimsby has been our collective ambition, especially when linked to raising awareness of seafood to educational institutions, local schools, and major UK retailers that source from Grimsby. A successful school will reach thousands of people across the seafood supply chain."

"As a TEC Partnership ally, we believe the Seafood School is crucial to building skills infrastructure for the sector, creating progression pathways that complement the University's ambitions to strengthen local Higher Education. The initiative addresses skills shortages, widens the sector's appeal, increases seafood consumption, and promotes sustainable practices while creating opportunities for Grimsby's coastal community."
