World Ocean Day Emsworth Litter Pick

Join us for a litter pick in Emsworth on Saturday 8th June 2024, 10:00 – 12:00, to mark Big Green Week and World Ocean Day!

PLEASE SIGN UP HERE ON TICKETSOURCE so that we know how much equipment to bring. https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/final-straw-foundation/t-lnmgxkv

Every bit of litter and rubbish we pick up makes a difference. The Final Straw Foundation will provide gloves, litter pickers, bags and buckets, but if you have any of your own of these that you would like to use please bring them.

If you would like to make a donation to the charity, you can do so here: https://www.justgiving.com/finalstrawfdn
