27/01/24 Cleanse and Clean Day of Action

DAY OF ACTION TO LOOK AFTER PLANET AND PEOPLE

Join us on 27th January 2024 for our Cleanse and Clean Day of Action.

Wherever you are in North Devon and Torridge, Plastic Free North Devon are encouraging community groups, individuals, schools or businesses to get outside for a Cleanse and Clean on our annual Day of Action.

The Cleanse and Clean campaign aims to encourage everyone to get in the great outdoors and pick up rubbish as you go, connecting and giving back to nature at the same time. This year the we are focussing our efforts on the Day of Action and want to engage as many people as possible to build a feeling of connectedness between people and the planet. The growth and impact of the campaign requires a community effort, so we encourage you to get involved in any way that you can.

Any action no matter how big or small can be entered into our prize draw to win a dryrobe® Advance of your choice.
