Sandilands Great British Beach Clean

Join us at Sandilands for the Great British Beach Clean and help protect local marine life along the Lincolnshire coast.

Together, we can help care for this special stretch of coastline and keep the sea safer for wildlife this summer. Every piece of litter collected, from washed-up plastic to tiny fragments hidden in the sand, helps make a difference.

We’ll also be gathering important data for the Marine Conservation Society, helping build a clearer picture of coastal litter and supporting campaigns for cleaner, healthier seas.

We’ll provide gloves, bags and litter-pickers, but you’re very welcome to bring your own if you prefer.

Please dress for the weather and wear sturdy footwear so you can stay comfortable while helping care for Sandilands’ shoreline.

This stretch covers the section of beach that borders National Trust Sandilands. 

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.
