People of all ages are wecome to join us at Thurstaston for a family-friendly beach clean and litter survey to celebrate this year's Great British Beach Clean 2025.

Pay and display parking is available at the entrance of Thurstaston (Wirral) Country Park car park (Search: CH61 0HN).

This is a sand and rocky beach, so we advise suitable footwear. All equipment will be provided, but feel free to bring your own equipment if you prefer.

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. 

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