World Ocean Week: Beach clean at Branksome Chine

To celebrate World Ocean Day (Monday 8 June 2026) we are hosting a beach clean, so that you can help clean up our seas and protect your local blue space.

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 Saturday 6 June (10am – 12pm) at Branksome Chine to get involved!

Additional information: there is a pay & display car park and public toilets nearby.

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.
