Monthly beach clean on Garelochhead beach. All welcome!<br /> First Saturday of each month.

The event is for 2 hours but even if you can only spare 30 minutes, please come anyway!

When you arrive please intorduce yourself to Loni or Christoph to get equipment.

Bring your own bags and gloves if you can, otherwise we will have spares.

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. 

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