Looking After Your Coast

Clear Up The Whitehaven Coast

Are you interested in helping to clear up the
Whitehaven Coast?


The Whitehaven Coast Project is looking for people who would be interested in helping out cleaning up the coast. As spring approaches the National Trust will begin work on some of the jobs that will make a big difference to the appearance of the area.

The kind of things that we are looking to do will include; removing some of the redundant fencing, attacking overgrown vegetation, widening footpaths to make them easier to use and generally cleaning up the areas that are looking a little neglected.

This is the first step in the plans to improve the Whitehaven Coast and we think that it's vital that local residents who would like to be involved have the opportunity to do so. There will be many different ways to become involved in the coming years; whether it's as part of a volunteer group working on paths, walling, planting or whatever may be needed, noting changes in the wildlife of the coast or just keeping an eye on the area and letting us know of any problems.

If you'd like to know any more about becoming involved or would be interested in helping with the initial clean up please let us know via the Contact Us section
