Hoping for another New Year’s Dip record

BEACH Buddies will once again be joining in with the charity Breast Cancer Now on New Year’s Day for the Douglas Dip, which is again sponsored by Canada Life.

We need as many volunteers as possible to come along about an hour beforehand to clean up the beach and clear a route to the water for the dip, and we’re also inviting as many people as possible to join in and beat the record we set last year.

Just turn up opposite the Queen’s Hotel in good time for the 12 noon start and have a go! No need to let us know in advance. You can register on the day.

Collection Bins

Beach Buddies provides, manages and maintains a network of 50+ collection bins around the island to encourage and enable members of the public to collect and safely dispose of beach rubbish. Our team visits each of the bins each week or fortnight depending on location and season to empty the contents and ensure the bin is in good order. We recycle what we can and depose of the remainder at the Energy From Waste facility. Last year we deposited over 20 tonnes of rubbish in this way. This is at the core of operation as well as being the most intensive of our activities.
