GBBC beach clean - Monreith, Galloway
Join this beach clean to help us stop harmful litter from reaching the ocean and collect vital data that we can use to bring about positive change for our seas.
Join us for a Great British Beach Clean survey with the Marine Conservation Society!<br /> <br /> Thousands of volunteers across the UK take part in GBBC each year, gathering vital data helping us campaign for change.<br /> <br /> We will meet on the beach at the bottom of the steps near Monreith. Note: This beach is not the most accessible and requires a certain level of fitness to attend.<br /> <br /> Beach clean will be led by our Youth Engagement Officer, Katie Macfarlane, who lives locally!
Beach stretch details
This beach is as you are leaving Monreith on the way to Port William. Large beach at the bottom of steps.
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.
