Join fellow Bankside volunteers for this beach clean on the Thames foreshore, led by our recycling partner Recorra, to help remove plastic waste from the banks of the Thames.

You’ll be surprised at the volume and variety of plastics found by the river; helping to remove these will make an immediate difference to our local environment and wider marine ecosystems.

We’ll meet opposite Marsha restaurant / Gourmet Pizza on Gabriel’s Wharf at 9.30am for a briefing from Recorra before heading down to the foreshore, where we will work our way back towards Bankside.

Please wear suitable, closed-toe shoes. We are running this event during low tide, but the surfaces along the Thames can be slippery. Please also dress appropriately for the weather.  High-vis jackets, bin bags, litter pickers and gloves will all be provided.

Once the beach clean is completed, we will send you a certificate with the amount of waste collected by everyone.

As places are limited for this event, there is a cap of 6 people per business.

If you register but can no longer attend, please cancel with as much notice as possible to allow someone from the waiting list the opportunity to take your place.
