SEP Beach Clean Events

SEP Beach Clean Events

The weekend of the 14th – 17th September 2018 marked the first ever Severn Estuary Big Beach Clean! As part of the Discover the Severn Project (funded by Natural Resources Wales), we joined forces with the Marine Conservation Society, Keep Wales Tidy and Litter Free Coast and Sea Somerset to coordinate an estuary wide clean up as part of their larger national campaigns. Through the event, we hoped to highlight the huge amount of effort that goes into beach cleaning and litter picking all around the estuary and welcomed individuals, community groups, businesses and other organisations to take to the coast and clean up our beautiful estuary!

Now, SEP runs two annual cleans- The Severn Estuary Spring Clean in Spring, and the Big Beach Clean in late Summer/Autumn. Click the boxes below to find out more about these events!
