Community
We know that offshore wind projects can bring significant benefits to local communities.
It is too early to have defined Morgan, Mona, and Morven’s benefits or impacts.
We will be considering the opportunities that may become available and keeping you up to date through this website.
As a project, our behaviour will be open, constructive, collaborative, and solutions-focused.
We will seek to:
Listen to our stakeholders, and engage with integrity and respect.
Set out our principles openly and transparently, published on our project website.
Recognise differences and work together to find mutually acceptable solutions that are reasonable and proportionate to our impact in the local area.
