The group was formed in 2018 as a response to the plastic pollution crisis in the ocean. We have worked closely with Surfers Against Sewage to gain their Plastic Free Communities award for Dawlish.
Our aims are:
• To reduce the use of single-use plastic items locally in businesses, schools, community group spaces
• To encourage everyone in the community to REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE
• To maintain a Beach Toy Library at Coryton Cove
• To run monthly beach cleans and litter picks which are open to everyone.
• To promote the group’s activities through a variety of media and through taking part in local events
• To inform the community about the effects of plastic pollution
We welcome new members and if you would like to join us, please get in touch.
