Join us this April Bank Holiday for a litter pick in one of Poole's most needed locations - Holes Bay. As there are also what appears to be thousands of Nurdles along the shore, we'll also designate a team to specifically pick out some nurdles so we can record these to The Great Nurdle Hunt.

This SSSI site at the back of Poole Harbour, next to Upton Country Park, is a sensitive intertidal environment made up of saltmarsh, mudflats and rich feeding grounds for wetland birds. It forms part of a conservation partnership between Poole Harbour Commissioners, Dorset Wildlife Trust and BCP Council, aiming to protect biodiversity while enabling people to connect with nature. The Nature Park is home to a variety of wildlife that feed off this area (and it's FULL of litter!!). The tides bring in the water, which carries litter from the local area, and essentially traps it in the corner. This area is unloved and needs alot of TLC.

The litter picking site runs along the Holes Bay Path, beside the A350, and is reachable only on foot, via a tarmacked well kept hard-standing pathway. Terrain at the litter pick site can be uneven, marshy, and boggy. Work must be carried out cautiously and respectfully, ensuring no disturbance to wildlife or damage to the protected habitat.

Collections will be conducted when the tide is out to reduce risks associated with soft mud, tidal movement, and water hazards.

The site is only accessible via foot (a 10-15 minute walk from the roadside). Please park along Willis Road and meet on the corner of Willis Road/Broadstone Way. From there, we will cross the road and walk along the path to our designated site. Meet at 10am, we'll wait for 10 mins before leaving.  What3Words - organs.warm.fall

Please wear suitable outdoor clothing and hard-soled, waterproof footwear. The ground can be marshy and uneven, so dress for mud, weather changes, and comfort.
