The Wild Beach School program, launched by the Final Straw Foundation in 2022, has connected over 3000 children in Hampshire and West Sussex with coastal ecosystems through hands-on learning. It fosters environmental stewardship, creativity, and teamwork while enhancing well-being. The initiative aims to provide all schools access, ensuring every child experiences the beach.
We would love for you to join us by taking part in our annual plastic-free day on Wednesday, the 8th of May - just before the 98th birthday of the legend Sir David Attenborough!
Billie, the 11-year-old Youth Ambassador for Final Straw Foundation, has made a remarkable impact on environmental conservation. Inspired by the work the charity delivers, she has organised successful beach cleans, spoken at our Youth Eco Conference, and petitioned to reduce plastic packaging. Billie has garnered awards and recognition for her outstanding work, inspiring hope for the future.
