Our first beach clean of the year! Equipment will be provided and we will meet at the usual spot down by the water at 1pm ready to help do our part to make Plymouth a cleaner place. We will split into large groups and cover as much of Tinside and the hoe as possible before having a regular sea swim at 2pm.
From the start of November wearing a wetsuit to all sea swims is reccomended but not necessary as we will check the sea temperature on the day and put a message on the members groupchat.
We will meet down on the hoe by the water for a social swim. Every attendee must have completed the pool section of their swim competency check and they will be required to complete the sea competency check if they haven't done so already.
Session Lead / Paddleboard Lifeguard - Matt Hansen
Land Officer - Jasper Allen
Swim lead - TBD
All leaders and lifeguards are appropriately qualified and we have the correct kit to conduct a session safely and properly.
Judging by the current forecast, a 15 minute time limit will be imposed to ensure maximum safety, but this will be reviewed closer to the time. 20 attendees maximum as there is only one lifeguard present.
Wind is low. Chance of rain is low. Air temp is forecast to be around 10-12 degrees. Water temp is TBC estimated at 11-13 degrees.
