We were recently made aware of a big old mess around the Eastney section of shoreline in Portsmouth. The amounts of litter, dumping and pollution looked absolutely shocking, so this area is our next target in our series of beach cleans. You can find full details on the event listing linked to our Facebook page – check it out here: https://www.facebook.com/events/1962619747135414/

We will provide litter pickers, bags and gloves – hope to see lots of you there – it will take place between 10am and 2pm on Saturday 25th August.
