Additional information: 

Please note this is a surveyed beach clean where you will be required to record each item collected onto a sheet provided.

Please wear sturdy, flat, waterproof shoes or boots.
It may be cold so wrap up warm and bring a warm drink or water (refreshments maybe purchased from the local pub if it’s open).

Bring gardening gloves or similar with you if you have some, and arrive for a safety briefing at 10am as the estuary can be a bit treacherous if you are not prepared!
The access can be muddy and slippery; a walking stick might help if it has been raining.

If you are driving, please do not park in the pub car park, please either use the pay & display car park within the marina or park along Pier Road being mindful not to obstruct resident’s driveways.

Please register as a group when volunteering as a family.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
