Why host a Big Blue Dash?

A Big Blue Dash is more than an ocean-themed fun run: it’s a brilliant way to get the whole school moving, learning, and working together for our blue planet. By taking part, your school will help raise vital funds for the Marine Conservation Society’s work to safeguard our seas, from restoring habitats to reducing ocean pollution. Every pound your pupils raise supports real, measurable change for the marine life they’ll learn about. And with curriculum linked resources included, it’s a brilliant way to bring environmental education to life in the classroom and the playground. 

Organising a Big Blue Dash is simple
