Coastal Wealth is a 12-month, cross-community environmental programme delivered across coastal towns including Filey, Scarborough, Whitby, and Hornsea. The project brings together inland and coastal residents, local groups, businesses and organisations to take shared responsibility for caring for coastal environments through practical action and learning. It also delivers Social Value opportunities for partnering organisations.

​

The programme will deliver co-designed coastal litter-picking events, followed by sit-down activities that support reflection, shared learning, and next steps. Co-delivery partners will include youth groups, sports clubs, civic groups, and charities, ensuring activities reflect local priorities, accessibility needs, and community context, while also providing them with a fundraising and volunteer recruitment opportunity. 

​

It is a multi-pronged approach to local empowerment, community engagement, and social value at once, strengthening and boosting local tourism and cross-sector collaboration. 
 

Launching in Filey on 28 February with 7th Harrogate Scouts and Filey Scouts, supported by North Yorkshire Council Inspire Fund and Surfers Against Sewage, bringing communities together through facilitated coastal litter picking event and shared reflections that build participation, connection, interest and collective responsibility for coastal spaces.

Aligned with the Commonwealth Clean Oceans Plastics Campaign, Coastal Wealth is available as a commissionable community engagement programme for organisations and businesses seeking visible, participatory engagement outcomes.
