A series of free paddleboarding events were held across England’s waterways and coastline this summer to encourage people to get outside and enjoy the water and to highlight the problem of plastic pollution. The programme was led by adventurer and environmentalist Lizzie Carr - aka Lizzie Outside (www.lizzieoutside.co.uk) who, last month, became the first female in history to solo paddleboard across the English Channel. Last year Lizzie was also the first person to paddleboard the 400-mile length of England’s inland waterways solo and unsupported, highlighting the problem of plastic pollution through her nationwide initiative – Plastic Patrol. >> Aquapac Waterproof Case For iPhone 6 in Cool Grey RRP: £25 The waterproof case for iPhone 6 from Aquapac is fully submersible making it an ideal companion for surfing, kayaking, swimming along with many other water based activities to ensure your phone stays dry and clean while being fully useable.
