Parking in Blackness is very limited so please car share if possible.

Directions: Walk up St. Ninian's Road, pass through metal gate and head down path towards the blue bridge, turning left before bridge across grass to the beach.

Please wear appropriate clothing for the weather, sturdy shoes and bring your own protective gloves. All other equipment will be provided.

Also worth knowing…

What to bring: We’d recommend you pack a rucksack with a few essentials like sunscreen, waterproofs, hand sanitiser, and perhaps some snacks and a drink (in a reusable bottle, of course).

What to wear: If you're picking up litter with your hands it's worth wearing a strong pair of gloves - like gardening gloves - just to make sure you're protected. Sturdy shoes are a must for protection too.

Under 16s: To comply with our insurance, volunteers under 16 will need to be accompanied by an adult who will be asked to sign a parental / guardian consent form on the day by the beach clean organiser.
