Gwymona is a creative research project looking at how we can work with seaweed to create a brighter future.
We want to showcase 101 uses of seaweed by collaborating with individuals and organisations in this small but mighty country, Wales, to highlight its potential as a solution to the many challenges we face.

Explore the many uses of seaweed
Seaweed is amazing.
It provides a vital source of food and habitat for marine species and plays a key role in maintaining the ocean's chemistry.
It’s also very useful - from toothpaste to jelly, fertiliser to face packs… seaweed comes in all colours and shapes.
'Gwymona' is a Welsh verb, meaning 'to gather seaweed (for use as fertiliser)' - it was an important part of life here in the past and we want to bring it back.
