Apogee Employees Clear Waste From UK Shorelines to Mark Earth Day 2026
Apogee employees took action on Earth Day (22nd April), heading to coastlines across the UK to support local councils and environmental organisations in protecting marine environments and wildlife.
Apogee Corporation participated in beach clean‑ups across Kent, Lincolnshire, the Isle of Man and Jersey, helping to remove an estimated 400kg of litter from Britain’s beaches.
Volunteers collected a wide range of waste, including tyres filled with concrete, lobster pots, metal canisters, plastic containers, shoes, glass bottles, plastic lids and food packaging – items that pose serious risks to marine ecosystems if left untreated.
The Lincolnshire clean-up took place at Mablethorpe, where volunteers removed 43.35kg of litter in partnership with East Lindsey District Council.
Rachel Kaviani, IT Director at Apogee, commented:
“It was fantastic to be out with the Apogee team supporting a local beach clean, demonstrating our commitment to sustainability and community, and making a meaningful difference beyond the workplace.”
Marion Brooks, Chief People Officer at Apogee, added:
“We were blown away by the dedication and enthusiasm shown by our teams this year. Removing such a significant amount of waste from our shorelines is something we are extremely proud of, but it also serves as a reminder of how urgently we all need to take responsibility for protecting our environment and marine wildlife.”
Community involvement forms a key part of Apogee’s wider sustainability and social responsibility initiatives. Employees are encouraged to give back through two dedicated volunteering days each year, supporting charities, NHS trusts, educational establishments, councils and local causes across the regions in which Apogee operates.
