Enveco Hosts First-Ever Blackpool Beach Litter Pick Marathon in Partnership with SEA LIFE Centre Blackpool
On Tuesday 6th May, Enveco NW hosted our first-ever Blackpool Beach Litter Pick Marathon, in proud partnership with SEA LIFE Centre Blackpool—and what a success it was!
Over 170 incredible volunteers joined us across four key coastal locations, collecting litter from Blackpool’s beautiful beach. From families to community groups and local businesses, the turnout and enthusiasm was truly inspiring.
We’d like to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who made the day possible, including:
-
Councillor Jane Hugo Cabinet member for climate change and Chair of Enveco’s Board, Councillor Adrian Hoyle for showing their support and getting stuck in
-
Tesco, for not only taking part but also kindly donating water for our volunteers
-
All the local businesses, community members, residents and visitors who joined in and rolled up their sleeves
-
And of course, our amazing Enveco team, whose dedication and coordination ensured the event ran smoothly
This was more than just a clean-up—it was a community coming together to protect and preserve Blackpool’s coastline. A massive achievement in our ongoing mission to Keep Blackpool Tidy.
Stay tuned for more events like this—and if you missed out this time, we’d love to see you at the next one!
Councillor Jane Hugo, cabinet member for climate change said:
“I am really pleased to have been invited to be part of this event and appreciate the huge support from the local community and businesses. This litter pick is a brilliant event to encourage people to keep the beach clean and tidy. It also helps emphasise the importance of protecting the marine life and the sea from pollution as the sea plays a vital part of climate regulation.”
