Andy Cummins – SAS Campaigns Director

Ive always lived by the sea and its always had a hold over me. Ive been surfing for more than half my life. Back in my grommethood I was surfing with tampons, condoms and raw sewage at every surf. I immediately joined SAS so they would take my concerns and amply them down the corridors of power.

After surfing around Europe and Australia I completed a BSc (Hons) in Environmental Science and focused on the human impacts on the marine environment. As a surfer I felt I had a good understanding of what we are doing to our seas, but this was an eye opener.

After university I sailed from Falmouth, down Europe, and to the Cape Verdes before crossing the Atlantic. Even 1,000 miles from land I would be constantly confronted with mans impacts on the marine environment.

All these experiences have helped inspire and motivate me as a campaigner at SAS. Ive started as campaign assistant in 2004 and since then Ive worked on all our campaigns and enjoyed many successes.

Im stoked to be taking your voice and shouting just as loudly as ever down the corridors of power.
