Happy Half Term Litter Picking Event
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.
Meeting at the temporary RNLI life boat station at Marine Lake at 12:00, we will head along our beach and promenade.
♻️
We will update you on weather as we go on Facebook and Instagram but ask that you please wear suitable clothing/shoes for this event.
Some equipment will be provided (re-usable SAS bags, some pickers and some hoops) but we please ask that you bring your own if possible. 🙏🏼
12 volunteers are then invited to
Treats Café for a mid-pick picnic so please RSVP by 30th May 2023. (Please bring your own reusable cup!) ☕☕
Thank you and we can't wait to see you all! 🚯🏖️🥳⛱️🚯
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.
