Beach Clean
Volunteering.
Community Action Days see volunteers give their time to an activity making a positive difference in the community. One annual CAD initiative supports International Coastal Cleanup Day: we call it the CMP Beach Clean.
IMPROVING the ENVIRONMENT.
Plastic debris is a big issue because it does not decompose; it simply disintegrates. Over time, minute plastic particles get into our own food and water systems, becoming a health hazard.
That is why beach cleaning can, and does, make a positive environmental difference.
BEACH CLEAN
2025
Beach Clean 2025 took place in July at Hayling Island.
Around 130 determined environment-friendly volunteers to get stuck in clearing rubbish from south-coast beaches.
Once again teaming up with the Marine Conservation Society, CMP volunteers collected and recorded small plastic items for inclusion on the national data base.
14 different companies were represented on the day; between them, the volunteers cleared a remarkable 36 10kg sacks of wildlife damaging litter.
