About Sky Ocean Rescue

Sky launched Ocean Rescue in 2017, to make people aware of plastic pollution and to give everyone easy ways to take action, every day.

Pupils involved in the Foundation’s Premier League Primary Stars programme are educated on what it means to be single-use plastic free, through Ocean Rescue’s super resources and workshops.

The aim is to inspire positive action to reduce their single-use plastic intake, making small changes that will have a big impact.

So far, the campaign for change has reached nearly 48 million people across Europe.

To enter a class into the competition, please email [email protected] with one sentence explaining why they should win. Deadline: 5pm, Tuesday 2nd March.
