VISITORS to Macduff Marine Aquarium can now get a closer look than ever to the beautiful marine life found in the Moray Firth - thanks to funding from People's Postcode Trust.

Almost £2,000 has been awarded to the aquarium to enhance the already popular Sea Lab, an interactive centre which allows visitors to get a real hands-on experience of seashore life through the facility's touch pools.
