Our mission
Small actions, every week, add up
We don't run campaigns. We run a Saturday morning, every Saturday morning, and we've done so for eleven years. The numbers above are what that looks like.
- A clean-up every Saturday, rain or shine
- Everything weighed, sorted and reported publicly
- No membership fee — ever
- Open to all ages, with families welcome
Programmes
- Beach clean-ups
Saturdays, 8am, at a different beach each week. Gloves and bags provided.
- School visits
A free hour-long session for primary classes, on the beach or in the classroom.
- Habitat restoration
Dune planting and weed control with the council's rangers, monthly.
- Community events
Film nights, talks and the annual picnic that pays for the rest.
The committee
All volunteers, elected each year at the annual meeting.
- Rosa DelgadoChair
Marine biologist, founding member.
- Tom NakamuraTreasurer
Keeps the picnic profitable.
- Grace OyelaranSchools Coordinator

My kids ask every Friday whether it's a clean-up tomorrow. It's become our thing.
The most organised community group we work with. Every report lands on time and the data holds up.
Support the work
Every dollar buys gloves, bags and native seedlings. Every hour is a beach that gets cleaned.
