Also the station carries out a wide programme of guided tours, information evenings and other PR activities.At Westerhever at Hallig Hooge and at Hallig Langeneß the stations run three training establishments. Since 2009 there has been a German Foundation "Stiftung Schutzstation Wattenmeer" which supports the everyday work of the organisation.
