We have latex gloves but please bring your own if possible e.g. gardening gloves. The beach is stony in places so please consider that in your footwear. There are a couple of toilets at the beach café and one indoors for customers.

Children are welcome when accompanied by a well-behaved adult! I have allocated 2 hours for the clean but it may well be less as the littering is much reduced these days. We will also take a survey of what we find.

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. 

Sorry, there are no spaces remaining
