You’ve probably seen images like this one a lot in recent years, and like most people in the world it probably leaves you feeling jaded. But you should be disgusted–let’s do something about it.
As one of our charitable partners, some of the funds we raise through our campaign, plus the proceeds from selling our boat afterwards, will be donated to Plastic Oceans UK. They educate individuals and businesses, helping them take responsibility and solve the plastic crisis in practical ways.
