Please join us as part of the Great British Beach clean, organised by the Marine Conservation Society (MCS) to help clean an area we are super passionate about.

Have a mental health break from the laptop, whilst strolling on the beach helping the environment.

We will start after high tide and will need to record the rubbish we collect.

Please ensure you book a parking at West Wittering through Just park. You will be able to do this when you arrive too.

West Wittering will loan us their litter pickers, if you have your own thick gloves or litter pickers, please bring those to use. (Saves us buying more plastic.)

We look forward to seeing you there.

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.
