Cause: Raising Awareness & Cleanup of plastic in the Grand Union Canal
The Goals were
- General Awareness: Canoe and Cycle ON the Grand Union Canal with the local community; collecting macro plastic items. We had 13 Litter Heroes and we collected 42.2 kgs in 2 hours on 6 Canoes and a Water Bike
- Connect: Show the local community what is happening on the Canals, let them experience firsthand the impact & scale of plastic pollution and inspire them to take this back to their friends, family, colleagues and trigger action to avoid unnecessary plastic
