Enoch’s backs Hugh’s FishFight!
S.O.S. SAVE OUR SEAS
Since it’s inception in January 2011 we have been closely following and supporting Hugh Fernley-Whittingstall’s Fish Fight campaign, to change the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP). As public opinion grows European Commissioner Maria Danamaki has a really opportunity to help change the face of fishing.
Part of Hugh’s new strategy is to increase our Marine Conservation Zones (MCZ’s) that are so small at the moment that they don’t even cover 1% of the sea that surrounds the British Isles. Globally Fish Fight has a huge following & in many counties. Around the world people are beginning to understand the importance of managing our oceans sustainably, so that there will be fish for future generations.

Commitment to Sustainability
We understand the importance of sustainability and have taken action to ensure that we offer an ethical alternative. The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) ecolabel is the globally recognised mark for seafood that can be traced back through every step of the supply chain (boat to plate) to the well-managed and sustainable fishery that caught it.
We are the only fish & chip shop in Wales committed to using the MSC ecolabel to contribute to the health of our own & the world’s ocean, by recognising and rewarding sustainable fishing. We hope to influence the choices people make when buying seafood, helping to transform the seafood market to a sustainable basis.
Consumer Choice
When our customers choose seafood with an MSC ecolabel they can be assured that their choice has not contributed to the environmental problem of over fishing.
Sustainability is good for everyone and the planet.
Sustainable fish, recycled waste, energy efficiency: it’s what more and more customers want. As part of our sustainable engagement we can make a huge difference on issues such as climate change, animal welfare and waste…
It’s easy to think that being a sustainable restaurants is just about responsible sourcing and good environmental practices, but Society is just as important.
There are four identified areas that experts agree are also important in running a sustainable restaurant. Enochs fulfil this list of criteria by offer our support to local sport organisations, charities such as RNLI & The Fisherman’s Mission.
We also care about are crew & continue to be Investors in People.
We understand that health is important & now cook in heart-healthy sunflower oil that is 84% lower in saturated fat than normal chip shop palm oil and higher in mono-unsaturates & Omega 9, another first for the Wales.
