Activities and learning
If you're keen to take action for your beach, here's some suggestions and support:
Carry out a litter pick
Whether you're a beach local or a visitor, you can play a small part to help keep the sand and sea clean for everyone to enjoy. Join in a group litter pick, or do your own.
Head over to Clean Up Scotland for guidance and to get started.
Do a litter count
Another way you can help the campaign this year is by helping to track the amounts and types of litter on the beach and helping build both a local and a national understanding of the issue. This is vital for monitoring and for local campaigning.
Become a 'My Beach, Your Beach' business
Contribute to bathing water quality improvements at your local beach and help keep the sand and sea clean for everyone to enjoy!
Diving in: understanding bathing water quality
As part of the 2021 Year of Coasts and Waters we created a classroom resource for S1-6 pupils to help them learn about bathing water quality in their area and reflect on why their local beach is worth protecting.
