Paddleboarding Clean-Up - Kempston, Bedford

Join us for a paddle boarding clean up and take action for the planet. Whether you are a complete beginner or a total pro – everyone is welcome, and no experience is necessary.

Our qualified instructors will show you the basics and provide everything you need, including a paddle board, litter pick and a bucket to collect litter whilst out on the water.  Back on dry land, you’ll use the free Planet Patrol app to record your findings.

Sit-on-top kayaks and Stand up paddleboards will be assigned on arrival.

Make sure you download the app and set up an account before your clean up. Every piece of litter you remove and record helps build powerful evidence to drive change.

Once you’ve signed up, look out for a confirmation email containing all the event details and everything you need to know ahead of the day.

Planet Patrol is a global community dedicated to placing people-powered environmental data at the heart of decision-making. Through our unique anywhere, anytime, anybody approach to citizen science, we gather critical evidence of water and litter pollution to drive solutions that protect both environmental and human health.
