What 3 words - ///joined.same.define
Post Code - YO30 7BQ
We will be meeting at these what 3 words ///joined.same.define and then have a safety briefing at the square to the left of York St John University Boat Club. The pedestrian route will then follow the river downstream. If you are joining by boat please meet at 1130 just after the bridge. Boats will need to gather 100m upstream of Scarborough Bridge to be safe - at the bottom of St Peter’s straight.
Join us on 16th May, when the UK will take to the water, the shorelines and riverbanks in bigger numbers than ever before to demand an end to sewage pollution. Because up and down the UK sewage is STILL being dumped in our waterways, data is missing and we are paying the price.
We are sick of it!
Sick of the lies, sick of the greed and sick of a system that’s rigged against us.
We’re committed to making this movement inclusive and accessible to all. We see that everyone connects with water in different ways. Land-based photo moments will be a key part of the Paddle-Out allowing those who love the water but don’t feel confident to paddle can still be seen, heard, and part of the change.
We are more than surfers, more than sewage. We're calling on all environmentalists and all water lovers across the UK to join us at lakes, beaches and rivers to shout from the shores, paddle out or paddle in to stand up for the ocean and our rivers.
People from all corners of the nation must come together to show the people in power the tidal wave of support there is backing an end to sewage pollution.
