Hi John, it's Chloe here! Will you join me on May 17 to paddle out and protest?
YES, I'LL JOIN ✊ [[link removed]]
This will be my third time attending a Paddle-Out Protest and I can't wait! Every single year, I have seen the sheer power of our community and how it brings about real change. 💥
It's a pretty unique and special feeling to be standing alongside everyone on the day, giving a voice to our rivers and ocean and standing up to put an end to sewage pollution. 📢
I always leave these events feeling super inspired, motivated and having made some new friends! Fancy joining this year?

How do Paddle-Outs make an impact? 2023: The water industry apology
In 2023, we had 18 Paddle-Outs take place across the UK. Alongside this, we ran the Dirty Money petition calling for an end to profiting from pollution. By putting the pressure on and spotlighting this issue, we provoked a public apology from the water industry.

2024: The year for change
2024 was the year of the general election. We used our 34 Paddle-Outs across the UK to put pressure on those in power to make ending sewage pollution a priority for the election. And it worked! For the first time ever, our cause was at the top of the political agenda.

2025: Our biggest day of action yet
This year, we are on track to have our biggest day of action yet. And for good reason! This is a HUGE opportunity for change as the Independent Commission is finalising its recommendations for water industry reform. Join us and be a part of history in the making!

As you can see, every Paddle-Out Protest has paved the way for where we are now. We've fought so hard for this!
By paddling out with us this year, you can help us show the decision-makers that we are watching. And we will not stop until we see an end to sewage pollution. ✊✊✊
I hope to see you out there on May 17th, John!
