We will be cleaning our dive site on Satureday, the 24th October 2026. Depending on the weather on the day, we may also be able to dive and have a picnick. Please make sure that you have suitable shoes so that you can walk securely on the beach.

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.

Sorry, there are no spaces remaining

This beach clean has reached full capacity.
