With your help, Clean Ocean Sailing will travel from Cornwall to the Scillies on their boat Annette, to clean up the wild and mostly uninhabited archipelago. 
‍
Clean Ocean Sailing have been given special permission from the Isles of Scilly Wildlife Trust to access Annet, and other islands which usually have a year-round ban on human visitation, meaning they will be collecting and documenting plastic found where hardly anyone has ever been. They are expecting to clean up more than 8 tonnes of man-made marine rubbish from the Isles of Scilly, all of which will be sorted, weighed and recorded, before being brought back to the mainland where it can be properly recycled to ensure it doesn’t end up causing further harm to wildlife.
‍
England’s enchanting archipelago is exposed to the open ocean, so is heavily polluted by plastic washing in on the tide. Many of the coasts are hard to reach and have never been cleaned, so wild animals are unfairly suffering, becoming entangled or ingesting bits of plastic they mistake for food.
By donating anything you can and supporting their work, you will be helping them to continue organising beach cleans, working with local people and businesses on finding solutions to the problem and keeping the issue of marine litter in the public eye.

You can help them make a difference cleaning up this beautiful part of our country.
