Poo patrol

Ocean Activist’s first ever Poo Patrol has officially hit the beach.

The new campaign launched in Sidmouth, Devon on the morning of May 19 after South West Water began discharging raw sewage at around 4.30am.

Armed with a warning flag and an inflatable poo, our patrollers will be popping up at beaches across the coastline this summer to raise awareness and spark conversations about sewage pollution.Thankfully (or perhaps not ) that day’s weather did not exactly tempt people into the sea.
