youth Beach clean day

Unfortunately, due to a lack of bookings for this and the need to have quite a lot of things organised for it to work, we are going to cancel Saturday and try it again for another time.

World Environment Day is coming up on the 5th June and we thought it would be a great opportunity for us to get together and do something to help protect our environment, as well as enjoying a good day out.  We are going to walk over to Borreraig beach from Kilchrist (Cill Chriosd) church and clean up the beach in the photo above.  This was taken on Monday 24th May and shows just how bad the rubbish has gathered there.

Full details of the event will be emailed after booking but keep in mind that this is a fully outdoor event which means the young people will be outdoors for the entirety of the time.  They need to be suitably clothed and prepared for this.  There will be a sheltered area if it gets wet and an outdoor toilet for use.  Gloves will be provided for their protection.

Each young person should bring their own packed lunch and snacks with them as there will be no sharing of food or leaders handling young persons food due to the Covid-19 regulations.

Lastly, you are very aware of the restrictions we are currently under, and therefore, following a successful booking, you will have to confirm that you have read and understand our Covid-19 statement and that you will comply with it.  The current regulations require the young people to observe social distancing, and leaders will be required to distance from each other and from the young people as much as is practicably possible.
