GYC Social – Beach Clean2

Our last beach clean on 18^th April was very successful with 22 bags of rubbish and 15 bags of recycling.  Let’s see if we can beat that record and keep our beach clean for our community / wildlife!   Therefore, I have organised another beach clean with permission from PLA, Environmental Agency, Thames21 and Greenwich Council.

This is a free event for our members to give back to the community and help our wildlife thrive; but we do need you to book a slot so we know that we have enough litter pickers and know how many volunteers to expect

Important notes

• Wear closed toe shoes/boots (with metal ideal, but not mandatory).
• Wear gloves (you will not be handling any litter).
• Wear long comfortable trousers.
• Wear long sleeved tops.
• Any cuts and open wounds must be dressed and covered before attending (mandatory)
• Optional – facemasks and goggles

We will provide bags, litter pickers (limited) and guidance.

I will be managing this event with the help of Dee Smith who is also the Area Coordinator for British Divers Marine Life Rescue and is a Marine Mammal Medic.
