Campaign with SAS

Use your voice. Change the system. Protect our waters.

The more voices we bring together, the harder we are to ignore. We’re building a movement to challenge polluters, put pressure on politicians and force the changes our seas, rivers and lakes need.

Whether you’ve got a couple of minutes to sign a petition, email your MP, or you’re ready to stand alongside thousands of others at a paddle-out, protest or Mass Lobby – there’s a way to make your voice heard. Discover how you can get involved in our campaigning below.

Clean The Bill

See how much sewage has been dumped in your area, then email your MP to ask that they back a strong Clean Water Bill.

Surfers Against Sewage is a campaigning charity. But what does that mean?

Campaigning is fighting back against something together to make an impact. Voices, hands, hearts, energy, all working for a common cause.

Sometimes it means getting tough on those in positions of power, protesting against policies, or demanding action in the face of dithering. Every signature, message to an MP and person who shows up adds to the pressure for change.

We confront sewage pollution head on, wherever we need to, from the beachfront to the front benches and everywhere in between. But that’s only made possible by the groundswell of people power in communities across the UK, taking action to protect the waters we love.
