Please join us at the Thera East Beach clean up, that coincides with The Thera East Beach hut picnic.

  • We want to clean 100 yards of the beach located near the beach hut  
  • The clean up will start at 10:30 and run for an hour. 
  • You will need to be there for 10:00 to collect equipment and have a safety briefing. 
  • Please bring your own gloves and, if you have them, your own pickup sticks.
  • We recommend bring hand wipes and sanitisers as 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!
