We will be cleaning the beach and also carrying out a survey so plenty help required.

Come and do your bit for the ocean.

You dont have to stay the full two hours- feel free to drop in for a shorter time.

There is a window cafe in the park for refreshments.

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. 

26 spaces remaining - join us on the beach whilst there’s still spaces!
