Beach Guardian CIC
Padstow, UK
Beach Guardian CIC is a Community Interest Company based in Cornwall, United Kingdom. Over the years regular beach cleaning has been done to collect and remove rubbish from the beaches; mainly washed up with the tide and mainly plastics from the sea. We now organise community beach cleans and conduct educational workshops with schools and other groups so that we are connecting people with the environment to improve health and wellbeing. The project’s aims and objectives include: - More regular, organised, community Beach Cleans - Educational Events to discuss about the impact on our local beaches and seas from plastics in the oceans so that pupils develop care and concern for their natural environment - Encourage more local people to do beach cleans and share their findings which benefits mental health and wellbeing as well as the environment - To do art installations using plastics found washed up on local beaches to raise awareness -To work with holiday companies to ensure that visitors to Cornwall engage and are aware of these and other initiatives
