It's easy to get involved. Simply find a beach clean near you or organise your own. Marine Conservation Society have lots of guides and resources available to help you get set up.

Beach cleans are fun for all the family (including dogs!), and the data collected helps us to campaign for positive change for the ocean.

Litter data collected on beach cleans drives our conservation work, helps us to campaign for change, and also feeds into the International Coastal Clean-up (ICC).

Our data has been used to make a positive impact on our ocean - including the introduction of the plastic bag charge, banning microplastics in personal care products, better wet wipe labelling, and supporting a tax on single-use plastic items.

But there is still so much to do to stop the litter plaguing our beaches.

Price: Free to take part
