Beach cleans are for the whole family – including your four-legged friends 🐶

Jasper had a great time when he joined his family for a beach clean – just listen to those happy pants and zoomies!

Ever heard of nurdles? These tiny plastic pellets are causing big problems

Nurdles are the raw material used to make plastic products. Millions are lost during transport, ending up on our beaches and in the sea

They’re hard to spot, harder to clean up and a growing threat to our ocean

The #GreatBritishBeachClean is back 19-28 Sept
