An estimated 26 million tons of plastic pollution ends up in the oceans each year where it chokes, entangles and poisons marine life, killing millions of marine creatures each year?

Plastic bags, disposable cutlery, old phone covers, drink bottles, batteries… you name it, we’ve found it! And unfortunately, it all poses a big threat to our marine creatures, whether it stays in our rivers or gets washed into the ocean.

Please note children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult.

We will provide all beach cleaning equipment although we advise that volunteers dress for the weather with a strong sensible choice of footwear as well as bringing a pair of protective gloves (gardening gloves work well) if attending a beach clean.

You will have the chance to directly help to protect and conserve our native aquatic creatures. These events are a great family day activity and a wonderful way to help children develop their understanding of local habitats and the importance of protecting our natural resources.

The beach clean usually takes approximately 1 hour but this may vary depending on the conditions and the volume of rubbish there is to pick up.
