Activity

The big clean-up

Litter is a real problem in our wild places, but you could help do something about it.

Beach clean event, RSPB Minsmere Nature Reserve

This Helping Nature activity can be completed as part of Families Wild Challenge.

Estimated time: Under an hour Season: Autumn, Summer, Spring Skill level: Easy

Instructions

Choose an area you'd like to clean up and then make sure you have the owner's permission to do so (most people will be delighted that you want to help but always check first). Think about how safe it will be for you to do the litter pick there.

Pick a date and time and then recruit your team – it might be just your family (adult supervision required) or you could get other members of your community involved too.
