Beach Buddies will be going to The Lhen for this weekend's beach cleaning team session, meeting at 10.30am on Sunday morning.
There is ample parking, and it's likely that the volunteers will be split into two groups to give maximum coverage of the area, which is one of the beaches which seems to attract more than its fair share of marine litter.
Beach Buddies provides all the necessary equipment, courtesy of WDS Ltd, SITA and the DoI, and will be using the Sandy Bairstow trailer to remove the material collected afterwards, recycling where possible.
New volunteers, families and supervised children, are warmly welcome for no more than an hour of doing something great for the environment and wildlife.
• An important point of volunteers to note is that many seabirds have now given birth to young chicks, so we need to be careful when cleaning the beach, and to keep away from nesting areas.
