Property management company FirstPort recently rallied colleagues and residents from across the country to take part in the Marine Conservation Society’s annual Great British Beach Clean.
Eight FirstPort teams, consisting of colleague and resident volunteers gathered at coastal locations across England and Scotland, to support environmental sustainability whilst benefitting the local community.
The nationwide initiative brought together thousands of volunteers to clean up Britain’s beaches and safeguard marine life. As one of the UK’s largest citizen science projects focused on ocean health, the event plays a vital role in tackling coastal pollution.
Volunteers removed litter from a designated 100-metre stretch of beach, whilst collating the types of waste collected. This data helps the Marine Conservation Society campaign for stronger environmental protections and contributes to the global International Coastal Cleanup database.
Property Manager, Anna Latkowska, who led the beach clean at Highcliffe Beach, said: " Property Manager, Anna Latkowska, who led the beach clean at Highcliffe Beach, said: “It was truly inspiring to see such a strong turnout for this year’s Great British Beach Clean. Now in our third year of taking part, the event continues to grow, with more volunteers joining us each time - a clear sign of how much our local beaches mean to the community.
“We’re already looking forward to welcoming even more volunteers next year!”
