Following the latest restrictions, governments across the UK have updated their guidance on volunteering. Volunteering can continue provided you do not need to self-isolate, you follow social distancing guidance and are Covid-secure.
Your safety is of utmost importance to us. Where possible, we are happy for volunteers to run small, private beach cleans with their family or allocated bubble, but please always check and follow national and local guidelines around lock down restrictions, along with the following rules:
To help we have updated all our resources including the health and safety guidelines and Q&A. Please do have a look at these and review the government advice before you start.
If you’ve never run a beach clean or litter survey before we’re happy to help you get started. Please give our team a call on 01989 567807 or email us at Beachwatch@mcsuk.org
Part of the annual Great British Beach Clean
To join us on this beach clean, please first register as a volunteer. You will then be able to sign up to this event on this page to let us know that you will be coming.
Car parking is near the Cliff Edge Cafe, Fort Bovisand, Plymouth PL9 0AD above the beach. We'll meet at 1.30 for a briefing then walk down the cliff path to the beach (with equipment) and start clean. Path and steps down (and up again) are very steep and will be unsuitable if you have any mobility problems. Note the meeting point is on the fort side of the stream, not the Bovisand Cafe
side (although you can can access the beach from either side!).
