The Surfers Against Sewage protests took place on Saturday, May 18, 2024 at Scarborough South Bay and Saltburn Beach and involved thousands of participants who took to coasts and rivers across the UK.
They were protesting about the state of the nation’s waterways ahead of an upcoming general election taking place in the same year water companies are setting out their investment plans.
