Our beaches need some extra love during these storms💓
how much plastic can you spot hiding in the stones?
We picked up around 25kg from Saye, Corblets and Braye 🌊

Amazing effort!

On our recent cigarette sweep of town for #WorldWetlandsDay in #Alderney we picked up around 500 butts in under an hour 🚬

Please dispose of these responsibly to stop plastic pollution and toxic chemicals reaching our environment, especially wetlands 💦
