Note- a small burn crosses the area we work in so wellies are a good option.

Bring your own pickers and gloves if you have them but equipment will be supplied.

There are no toilets in the immediate vicinity. Closest are Lower Largo.

Wrap up well as this is quite an exposed area.

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. 

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