Big Beach Clean-up

22nd-28th April 2013

Register now!

Next month, you can join the fight against marine litter by taking part in the MCS/M&S Big Beach Clean-up. Over 110 beaches across the UK are going to sea Sea Champions and volunteers coming together to do a beach clean and litter survey which will highlight the issues of beach litter around our coastlines.

Hosted by your local M&S store team, the beach clean and survey will last a couple of hours, leaving the rest of the day free for you to enjoy the beach. If you’d like to take part, all you need to do is find your nearest beach on the map and register!

Last year over 6,000 people volunteered and collected 3,200 bin bags full of litter! The bags weighed in at over 11.5 tonnes. This included 12,800 wrappers and 2,850 tin cans.
