Dungeness, Lydd Ranges

Strandliners Events

Join this beach clean to help us stop harmful litter from reaching the ocean and collect vital data that we can use to bring about positive change for our seas.

    This is a challenging, but fascinating event, involving a 45-minute walk over shingle to reach our survey area, so is not suitable for young children or anyone with mobility issues. Full details will be sent out (including how to get to the meeting point) in the week before the event.

This is an exposed site and the weather can change very quickly, so be prepared for anything. Good footwear essential. Bring a drink and a snack if you wish.

We will pick and survey our usual 100 metres, but will also pick up everything we can carry on the way back. We will provide gloves, pickers, bags etc. 

Dungeness is a remote and mysterious place, and there is no way of knowing what we will find!

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.
