Fylde
Here at Fylde LOVEmyBEACH we aim to inspire and empower communities to take care of their local beach environment. People can show they love their beach by heading out on a beach clean or adopting beach-friendly practices in the home. If everyone makes small changes we can all have a big impact on the local coastal environment and in particular bathing water quality.
We work from Lytham to Knott End, covering the iconic beaches at Blackpool through to the picturesque coastlines of Fylde and Wyre boroughs.
Fylde LOVEmyBEACH works with thirteen regular volunteer groups across the coast who do an amazing job of litter picking and surveying their favourite Fylde coast beach.
We know local businesses are an important part of every community and they can play a key role in helping improve our beaches and seas. Business on the Fylde coast can get involved by supporting beach cleans, holding LOVEmyBEACH days and running their operations in a Beach friendly way such as encouraging staff to ‘think before they flush.’
Fylde LOVEmyBEACH is managed by BeachCare – a partnership delivered by Keep Britain Tidy, one of our Turning Tides members.
