Wembury 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.
Join Devon Wildlife Trust's Wembury Marine Centre team and the National Trust South Devon Countryside Team for a community beach clean as part of the Marine Conservation Society's Great British Beach Clean!
Meet outside Wembury Marine Centre just before 10:30am. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
Please wear sturdy footwear and clothing appropriate for the weather. Please also bring litter picking kit , e.g., gloves/bags if you have them. Depending on group size, we will split up and cover both Wembury Beach and Wembury Point/Langdon Beach.
Dogs are welcome to join the Langdon Beach clean, but are banned from the main beach during the summer months.
In the event of a severe weather warning, the event will be cancelled and attendees will be notified via email, so please check your emails the day before.
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.
87 spaces remaining - join us on the beach whilst there’s still spaces!
