HOW TO GET INVOLVED
STEP 1: REGISTER YOUR INVOLVEMENT
The campaign launches on the 20th July, running through to 1st September, and we're inviting people all across the UK to get involved!
To take part, simply register by entering your email address and we'll send you a welcome pack with everything you'll need to participate.
STEP 2: CLEAN YOUR BEACH!
Get involved in taking a direct positive action against marine plastic pollution!
Whilst we encourage you to remove all forms of plastic pollution, it is specifically ghost gear; the most harmful and abundant form of marine plastic, that we want you to return to us for recycling.
STEP 3: SHARE YOUR HAUL
We're tackling a huge problem and we can't do it alone, so share your haul and your message of positive action on social media!
Tag us (@Waterhaul_co) in a Post, Reel or Story of your clean and use #MONEYFOROLDROPE and we'll DM you with a link to log your clean up, unlocking your £20 Waterhaul Eyewear Voucher.
We'll then follow up with instructions on returning your ghost gear to us for recycling.

STEP 4: CLAIM YOUR REWARD
Your £20 Waterhaul voucher can be used on any Waterhaul sunglasses, blue light blocking glasses, or prescription glasses!
The ghost gear that you return will be recycled by Waterhaul, in-house, making it's way into our future production batches! We'll keep you in the loop with this process.
WHAT WE CAN ACCEPT:
We're collecting three key forms of ghost gear (lost, abandonded or otherwise discarded fishing gear). Ghost gear is the most abundant and the most harmful form of marine plastic pollution and for these reasons, is our direct focus at Waterhaul.

OUR MISSION: TURNING WASTE INTO A RESOURCE
At Waterhaul, our mission is clear: to combat ocean plastic pollution by transforming waste into adventure-performance eyewear.
Every pair of sunglasses is crafted from 100% recycled end-of-life fishing gear, collected ourselves from the UK coastline. By choosing Waterhaul, you’re not just purchasing a product; you’re supporting our vision for a cleaner, healthier ocean. Together, we can turn the tide on plastic pollution and protect our precious marine environments.
GHOST GEAR: THE OCEAN'S MOST HARMFUL PLASTIC
The core driver of the ghost gear problem is that this material is being treated as worthless 'waste'.
