Portishead Beach: Great British Beach Clean
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.
Every September thousands of people across the UK head to the coast to take part in the Great British Beach Clean.
Beach cleans are fun for all the family and the data collected helps us to campaign for positive change for the ocean.
Join the Marine Conservation Society on Wednesday 24th September (11:30am – 1pm) at Portishead Beach (Woodhill Bay) to get involved this year!
Additional information: On-street parking is available nearby and there are public toilet by the Lake Grounds. In addition, Cafe Lido is also closeby - situated within Portishead Open Air Pool).
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.
