Join our Slapton Sands Beach Clean! We're gathering at the Slapton Sands Memorial Car Park (TQ7 2TQ) to give our beautiful beach some much-needed TLC. Grab your friends, family, and even your doggos, and let's make a difference together!

 

Bring gloves along with you. All other equipment will be provided.

Free parking with voucher available on arrival. Free hot drink or Mr Whippy Ice Cream from Start Bay Inn, Torcross.

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.
