The results for this year's Great British Beach Clean are in! Find out how much litter our brilliant volunteers collected over the 10-day event.

Thanks to the hard work of volunteers all across the UK and Channel Islands, this year's Great British Beach Clean was a smashing success!

We were delighted to see even more of you join us at the beach this year, with 5,845 volunteers taking part in 476 events to help clean up and survey our coastline.

A whopping 249,823 litter items were collected, weighing 6,048kg and filling 1,675 bags! By removing this litter, our volunteers helped prevent it from entering our ocean and harming our marine life.
