If you are driving the beach is a 15 minute walk gently downhill across fields and tracks. Wear sturdy footwear and bring gloves, dress suitably for the weather. The event will go ahead unless the forecast is too wet or windy to carry out the survey safely and effectively. We will work in pairs or groups of 3 but social distancing will be observed at all times. 

There will be a short safety briefing before we start.

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.
