Great British Beach Clean
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.
I look forward to meeting you on International Coastal Clean up day for a beach clean and litter survey. We will be recording the litter that we find that will go into the Marine Conservation Society's national database. I will have paper forms available but you can download our app via this event and save it to your homescreen you'll be able to record the data straight from your phone.
We'll be meeting on Brighton Beach just to the side of Ohso Social Club. What 3 words ///jumped.older.pram.
All beach cleaning kit will be provided but if you do have your own study gloves, like gardening gloves then please do bring them along but I will have ones you can borrow.
**Accessibility**: We want to ensure this event is as accessible as possible. Please talk to us ahead of booking if you have any health conditions, access needs or Special Educational Needs and we will do our best to support your participation.
If you have any questions or access needs, please contact [email protected].
More on accessibility at Brighton Beach
- The beach has a ramp access from the promenade
- The beach is large pebbles. The gradient changes each day, but is flat at the top.
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.
