Meet Chanelle Thomas, Head of Core Education at Ocean Campus, telling us why TrashBash matters.

Every piece of litter removed from the beach helps protect marine life, reduce pollution, and create a cleaner, healthier environment for everyone. Whether you're coming with friends, family, colleagues, or on your own, your contribution matters. ♻️

Remember to bring a bucket, a sun hat, plenty of drinking water, and your enthusiasm for a morning of meaningful action in the great outdoors. β˜€οΈ
