July 23, 2024 - Active 360, a leader in promoting environmental awareness through water sports, proudly announces its new team building and fitness initiatives aimed at tackling plastic pollution in the River Thames. These initiatives include Paddle and Pick sessions and comprehensive fitness programs, all designed to foster team spirit and promote environmental conservation.
