Join the Durham Wildlife Trust for a Marine Conservation Society Great British Beach Clean at Seaham Hall Beach on Friday 25th September (10am - 12pm). Please meet ready to start and collect equipment at Seaham Hall Beach Car Park (SR7 7AG) for 10am. All equipment supplied and everyone welcome to join us! We will carry out a litter survey on a 100m stretch of the beach, recording the litter we collect during your clean. Alongside this, we will also be leading a beach clean on the rest of 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.

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