THE BIG BEACH CLEAN! As part of MCS yearly survey, The 2 Minute Foundation are heading back once again to the same spot on Crooklets Beach to pick, identify and contribute to the data needed to tackle to on-going plastic pollution crisis. Whether you can spare 10 minutes or stay for the whole session, every piece of litter collected makes a difference. Beach cleans are a great way to get outdoors, meet like-minded people, and make a visible difference to our local environment, and this one is even more special as we will be collecting data that feeds into the Marine Conservations Society yearly survey. 📍 Meeting point: Crooklets beach – on the right hand side near the surf club (look out for our big whale flag!) ⏰ Time: 11-1 pm

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!
