Hello! 

I'm Kate and I am a trained MCS Beach Clean Volunteer, as well as being on the UWE Paddleboarding Committee.

As a volunteer for MCS, I am organising this beach clean for our amazing members and other UWE students to attend - helping to keep our wonderful beaches clean!

Bring LOTS of warm clothes and snacks and we'll provide all the beach cleaning kit! You will definitely want some waterproof shoes or some old trainers you don't mind getting dirty!!

Thank you, we'll see you there!

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. 

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