GBBC: Platte Saline Bay and Clonque Bay island beach cleans, Alderney
Join this beach clean to help us stop harmful litter from reaching the ocean and collect vital data that we can use to bring about positive change for our seas.
To celebrate the Great British Beach Clean (GBBC) the Alderney Wildlife Trust (AWT) will be hosting two beach cleans within Alderney's designated Ramsar Site. Please wear appropriate clothing and footwear. Gloves, litter pickers and waste bags with be provided. We will meet at Platte Saline Bay carpark and split into two groups to clean both bays.
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.
