Thames21’s The Deep Clean 2011

River charity is calling for volunteers to help clean foreshores at low tide

Thames21 is calling for volunteers to help clean some of London’s dirtiest foreshores of the River Thames on the lowest tides of 2011.

Vast expanses of river foreshore in both East and West London that normally remain covered on regular tides will be exposed providing the ideal opportunity for you to help clean and green London’s river.

Volunteers are invited to do as much or as little as they are willing to do to help improve their local environment.

All equipment will be provided, just turn up wearing clothes you don’t mind getting a bit muddy. They provide wellies and gloves, you just turn up!

Everyone across London is encouraged to tweet their pictures and comments on the low tides using the hashtag #lowtide
