Super excited to announce our new event in collaboration with Birmingham Energy Society... Symposium for Sustainability! Something quite different from our usual canal cleans, but we’d love to see loads of people getting involved! All info below 💚

Always choose to reuse. PPE pollution is growing by the day. Using reusables is a radical act to protect the ocean. #reuse #endplasticpollution #covidpollution
