Join Durham Wildlife Trust for a Marine Conservation Society Great British Beach Clean at Seaham Hall Beach on Monday 22nd September (10am - 12pm). Please meet ready to start and collect equipment at Seaham Hall Beach Car Park (SR7 7AG) for 10am. What3Words:///trick.units.typeAll equipment supplied and everyone welcome to join us!

We will carry out a litter survey on a 100m stretch of the beach, recording the litter we collect during your clean. Alongside this, we will also be leading a beach clean on the rest of the beach.

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.
