Working at Greenpeace often means that I find myself in some unusual places - inside a nuclear power station, atop an aeroplane or in a palm oil factory. But I certainly never expected to find myself at an international sushi awards ceremony.

Loch Fyne managing director, Mark Derry, tells oceans campaigner Sarah Shoraka about signing up to Seafood See Life and sustainable sourcing for the 40-strong restaurant chain.

"Since we started out a decade ago, we have striven to only serve fish from sustainable sources, adopting the strong ethical stance of Loch Fyne Oysters who remain our main supplier. This year is Loch Fyne Restaurants' tenth anniversary.

Chefs Tom Aikens (on the right in the picture above) and Richard Ord, both key supporters of our Seafood See Life initiative, tell us why sourcing their seafood ingredients sustainably is so important to them. Their restaurants, Tom's Place in London and Colman's in South Shields, may be nearly 300 miles apart, but these distinctly different fish and chips establishments have more in common than first appearances suggest.
