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.
For the third year in a row, we're joining the national Marine Conservation Society for their 'Great British Beach Clean'. We're also celebrating the things we've tried to do over the year, and that we want to make sure happen.
The Wild Ones and Wardie Bay Beachwatch have applied to SEPA for Bathing Water Quality Monitoring at Wardie Bay. We want the sea to be healthy to swim in, and our environment to be as protected as it can be.
We are working with landowners and the Angling Megastore to provide fishing litter and general waste bins and signage on the Eastern Breakwater, to make sure our places are properly looked after, and to ask people to help sustain it.
Wardie Bay Beachwatch represents the hopes we have for our wider environment. If we all act on a local level and take that with us into whatever we do, and ask others to do the same, we can help.
Please join us!
