'Environmental catastrophe' at Camber Sands

We’re furious — but sadly, not surprised.

Southern Water has done it again. This time, millions of plastic bio-beads have washed up on Camber Sands — a shocking environmental disaster that will take years to clean up. These toxic pellets choke our beaches, harm wildlife, and pollute the very waters we love.

This is exactly why we’ve been shouting for years: enough is enough.

From Whitstable to Camber, our coasts are paying the price for corporate negligence and weak regulation. Southern Water continues to put profits over people, while our communities clean up their mess — literally.

We stand in solidarity with those fighting to restore Camber Sands and demand:

• Full accountability

• Tougher penalties

• Real investment in wastewater infrastructure

• A future where water companies serve the public, not shareholders

We will not stay silent while our seas are poisoned. Join us.
