🏖️Brighton Beach

Brighton Beach. Eight and a half kilometres of pebble running from the West Pier ruins through to the Marina. Five million visitors a year. Three Brighton Pride weekends. A hundred summer Saturdays where the sand bar fills and the pebbles disappear under towels. Brighton is the UK's most-photographed beach and its most-stressed one. Our sovereign survey band puts the visible plastic load at 320 kilos per kilometre. Multiplied across the full stretch, that is 2.72 tonnes of recoverable plastic sitting on Brighton stones right now. Under the dPRN floor of 450 pounds per tonne, that's 1,224 pounds of verified value. Forty meals per tonne means 109 meals fed from one Brighton clean. Two hundred and seventeen volunteer hours — call it a single Saturday with thirty people on the foreshore. Four point one tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent kept out of the atmosphere because this plastic never reaches landfill or incineration. Brighton is not a charity case. Brighton is a verified asset wearing the disguise of a public mess. Our claim: every single Brighton pebble that meets a sovereign bin gets logged into the Truth Ledger, sealed with a Verified Meal Receipt, and the operator who walked it home gets paid. This is the model. Not free labour. Not feel-good photos. A receipt. A ledger entry. A meal. If we run Brighton four times a year, that's 436 meals from one beach, on the most-walked stretch of pebble in England. Brighton chose us before we chose Brighton.
