RISE UP. CLEAN UP. MARGATE. CIC was set up in the summer of 2020 as a response to the litter crisis affecting Margate’s beaches.

We run regular beach cleans and would love for you to join us. During the summer months we run beach cleans every Sunday afternoon on Margate Main Sands. In winter these move to monthly in the morning.

For more info about us, to find out about our other creative & infrastructure projects and updates about community litter picks please join our mailing list via the website.
