2022: Barricade the Beach
We had an idea…
A bold stunt that would turn our beloved blue-flag beach at Tankerton into a crime scene for an afternoon, to reflect the consistent criminal activity by Southern Water 🚨
IT WORKED! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Over 1500 people turned up to support us and our beach barricade reached national news. We were blown away by every single placard, chant and red flag 🚩
Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts to everyone who came out to support us.
It was a year to the day since our last protest and nothing had changed. Southern Water are still polluting our beaches ❌
