Great Western Beach Clean

Join us at the Great Western Beach on Saturday 13th June 2026 at 10:00 for the Marine Conservation Society's Beach Clean. We will also have a Deposit Return Scheme Workshop based in the Great Western Hotel from 12:00. We will provide litter pickers, gloves and reusable bags. All you need is close toe shoes (no sandals, bare feet), clothing suitable for the weather on the day. We recommed a waterproof jacket, suncream and a hat. 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.
