Kent Surf School & Revolution Skatepark in conjunction with Surfers Against Sewage are looking for 50 volunteers to help with a Beach Clean event on Viking Bay in Broadstairs at 1pm on the 30th of August.

Everyone that takes part in the event will be entitled to a free Surf Lesson or Beach Activity with Kent Surf School.

This August, Surfers Against Sewage in association with the Quiksilver Foundation & myGames (powered by v), will be hitting the road with the biggest beach clean tour in its history. Since 1994, the volume of marine litter on UK beaches has increased by 146%* and SAS is helping combat this tide line of trash through its beach cleans and ongoing campaigns. ‘Motivocean’ is SAS’s most ambitious beach clean tour to date and will be calling in at over 20 major UK beaches and waterside locations across the nation.

Everyone is welcome at the events and thanks to the support of the youth volunteering charity v, SAS can also offer volunteers between 16 – 25 years old the opportunity to access and experience exciting sports, including surfing, by participating in these beach cleans. The sea and coastal environment are a vital component of so many sporting activities from sailing to surfing, and SAS hopes to further build awareness about coastal conservation by linking beach sports to the protection of the environment.

To sign up please email Chris@sas.org.uk with the location you’d like to join SAS at, your name, age and contact details. You can also call SAS here by telephone: (01872) 555950.
If you are between 16 – 25 years old, you can also sign up directly at www.vinspired.com.

Alternatively, you can e-mail Kent Surf School at info@kentsurfschool.co.uk or call Revolution Skatepark on (01843) 866707/866706.

So, please come along to the event, meet SAS team members and like-minded volunteers, and help protect your local beach!
