Tourism brings so much life and energy to Cornwall, but it also leaves its traces. With the summer season winding down and footfall on our beaches beginning to ease, we’re timing our beach clean-up to follow the Surf & Skate Expo (Friday–Sunday, 14th September). After a big weekend of festivities, and a whole summer of tourism and events, there’s likely to be some waste left behind, making this the perfect moment to come together and restore our beaches.
Where and when?
Great Western Beach, Newquay. We’ll start the clean at 6pm on Sunday 14th September, to allow spectators and athletes time after the competition to exit the area and move on to the Expo Village.
Here’s the plan:
We’ll gather rubbish and debris from the beach, following the event.
Some of these items will feature in Macke’s upcoming ocean-waste photoshoot, highlighting the impact of litter on our shores.
What do you need to bring?
Absolutely nothing - just yourself and a bit of positive energy!
We’ll provide all the essentials:
Gloves to keep your hands safe and clean.
A number of litter pickers available to borrow if you’d prefer not to handle items directly.
Collection bags to help us sort and gather everything efficiently.
By attending this clean-up, you’ll be making a real difference, helping restore Cornwall’s beaches for everyone to enjoy.
As a thank you, all volunteers will receive exclusive discounts on our new collection launching this autumn.
Be part of the campaign. Be part of the change.
