As part of the OSPAR monitoring programme, we will be collecting and recording all the litter along Jubilee beach, Southend - all ages welcome!  

All equipment and survey forms will be provided, however if you would prefer to use your own gloves/children will be joining you, please do feel free to bring your own (gardening gloves work really well!) 

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!
