This is the usual, annual clean which we take part in and includes a survey of the litter we find. Please bring gloves if you can, e.g. gardening gloves. We have some latex gloves if you wish to use them. We also have all the equipment necessary but feel free to bring your own. Children are welcome if accompanied by an adult.

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!
