Other essential things to remember:

Make sure you have parental permission and a responsible Adult to accompany you on your survey

Wear appropriate clothing including sturdy shoes

Always know the location of the nearest emergency phone


Above everything else the safety of everyone taking part is the most important aspect of BeachBeat.

To ensure that your group carries out your survey safely it is essential that all members of your group are briefed on safety aspects.

To help you we have produced a comprehensive guide to safety for BeachBeat surveys as part of the survey 'Toolkit' download.

You must carry out a risk assesment. Inevitably, in this day and age that means there is a form to complete - and it is one of the rules of the competition that you must submit your safety information to be entered into the prize draw.
