Greenbanks Bay Beach Clean and Litter Survey
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.
Help us to remove harmful litter and collect vital data for the Marine Conservation Society's Great British Beach Clean that we can use to bring about positive change for our seas. All equipment will be provided but if you have your own gloves, litter pickers or bag hoops then please bring them. We will be surveying a 100m stretch of beach - removing and recording ALL the litter. If folk want to continue cleaning more beach after this is completed then they are welcome to do that too! Dogs under proper control welcome. Please wear appropriate outdoor clothing.
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.
