December 2016: Beach Cleanup

Have you seen the picture of a plastic bag being placed side-by-side a jellyfish that is virally going on Facebook?

If you haven’t, we’ll save you the trouble by attaching it here.

It is entirely disheartening to know that these magnificent creatures, not only in water but air and land will mistakenly take these rubbishes as food and we all know what happens next. Painstakingly, we also know who’s at fault here.

Hence, for the next Raleigh Monthly Activity, we will be heading off to Pantai Kelanang, Kuala Langat on the 17th of December to help clear off the rubbishes at this coastal region, so please do bring your friends and family to not only clean but to spread awareness about the importance of keeping the entirety of our environment clean. We only have one home, and that is here, so let’s do something about it.  

Details of the event:

Date: 17th December 2016 (Saturday)

Venue: Kelanang Beach, Kuala Langat (nearby Morib Beach)

Time: 6.30am (meetup at Kelana Jaya Station)

More information about the event – We’ll tentatively reach Kelanang Beach at about an hour and half and will be back at Kelana Jaya Station around 3pm. During lunch hours, there will be restaurants nearby, hence please do remember to bring some money for your eateries.

Do sign up and we will get back to you as soon as possible regarding about payment details, what to expect and what to bring.
