Let’s clean our dive site! And do some citizen science whilst we are at it...

We will be cleaning our dive site on Saturday  the 24th October 2026. Depending on the conditions, we may also be able to dive in the morning and have a picnic - we will let you know closer the time. Please bring a pen, a clipboard (if you have one, appropriate clothing and suitable shoes to walk on the rocky shore. 

Please contact [email protected] or [email protected] with any questions/issues on the day

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.

Join us on the beach whilst there's still spaces!
