The Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park Ranger Service  and its fabulous volunteers are delighted to be back supporting the work of the Marine Conservation Society and GRAB Trust.

On the day we will survey and clean 100mt of the strand line at Lochgoilhead and Arrochar.

Please join us. Wear warm waterproof clothing, sturdy footwear, lunch and refreshements.

We will provide bin bags, hoops, pickers and the paperwork required for the survey. Looking forward to seeing you. 

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.
