Mull Adopt-a-Beach does the Great British Beach Clean

September 17, 2016 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm

The UK’s biggest beach clean and survey, the Great British Beach Clean (GBBC), is coming to Mull. Organised by the Marine Conservation Society (MCS) each September, the survey collects important data on marine litter, which provides evidence to help drive change.

Anyone can take part in a GBBC event, or even register a beach and organise one of their own. MCS Beachwatch surveys can also be done at other times of the year, so do consider doing a survey for your local beach.

Please keep up to date on the Mull Adopt-a-Beach Facebook page in case the event is called off for bad weather.
