Green Friday!

It's official. We've turned our backs on the traditional Black Friday deals and have welcomed in Green Friday.

You might remember last year when the team at Escape took part in a couple of small beach cleans as our way to give back to our planet for Green Friday, rather than encouraging people to panic buy at flash sale deals. 

This year we wanted to step it up and solidify our commitment to our planet by joining the Ocean Network with Surfer's Against Sewage. To compliment this new addition, we have planned another team beach clean for Green Friday! 

Early this year, Surfer's Against Sewage commissioned a poll on how the public feel about the water in the UK. The results showed "over half of the British Public (52%) were scared of swimming outside due to not knowing if the water is clean or polluted" (Taken from the SAS mid-year 2022 report).
As a brand we are passionate about encouraging people in to the water and we want to be able to continue to do so by helping people feel safe and comfortable in that environment. 

Why else is it important to keep our beaches and rivers clean?


A beach clean is a simple but effective way of actively contributing to making a change for the better.
