DOWNLOADa charity setup by kids, for kids

Hello! We’re Amy and Ella Meek, aged 17 and 15, and the founders of Kids Against Plastic!
Not long ago we came across the UN’s Global Goals and got inspired to do our bit for the planet, and after finding out about the negative effect single-use plastic is having on the environment, we launched the Kids Against Plastic campaign.
Our charity has three main aims that we hope to achieve through: EDUCATION (learning) and ACTION (doing)
Proud to be a UNESCO Green Citizen project.


- New protections for Scottish seas
- Greenwashing: What it is and why the UK watchdog is launching an enquiry
- Kitted out for beach cleaning in Scotland
- Great British Beach Clean 2020 results: PPE pollution on the rise on UK’s beaches
- World Jellyfish Day: Some of the jellyfish superstars you can spot on UK shores
- Our chance to tell the Scottish Government to tackle single-use plastic
- Climate, the sea and me: join us at the Youth Climate Summit
- Single-use plastic straws, stirrers and cotton bud sticks banned in England from today
- Help us #KeepItClean this summer!
- Make your own Plastic Challenge this July
