Become a Community Ambassador, aka PPA

We’re excited to have you join our community - welcome to PPA. What does PPA mean? Well, PP = Planet Patrol, and A = you, an ambassador.

Planet Patrol started as a mission to fight plastic pollution on inland waterways from paddleboards. It’s grown rapidly throughout the world and we now operate across UK, Europe and USA through our team of recognized partners, dedicated ambassadors and programme of activities.

What is a Community Ambassador?

Our Community Ambassadors are part of a network of like-minded individuals working together to protect the environment through community action. You will motivate your local community to be part of the #PlasticPatrol movement, inspiring positive action for the environment and people.

Our Ambassadors can be involved in a number of ways:

  • Be the voice of Planet Patrol in your local area.
  • Motivate your community to be part of the #PlasticPatrol movement.
  • Organise at least three clean ups per year.
  • Use and promote the Planet Patrol app to record rubbish in the local environment. 
  • Fundraise in your local area to help grow the movement.
  • Encourage businesses, schools and universities to take the Planet Patrol Pledge to reduce single use plastic.

Want to get involved? We’d love to hear from you. Click below and fill in your details – we’ll be in touch shortly to arrange a call.
