We expect to take 1 hour to clean and catalogue 100 metres of North Denes Beach, however you are more than welcome to stay longer and continue cleaning further down the beach. 

Bin bags & grabbers will be provided.

We will working in teams to collect and catalogue the rubbish found.

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.
