Beach Buddies at Gansey this weekend

BEACH Buddies makes a trip south this weekend with a volunteer team event at Gansey Bay (real name Brewery Beach) on Sunday, July 23rd from 10.30am.

We will be joining forces for the first time with volunteers from Rushen Heritage Trust – our thanks to John Quirk for organising this.

Afterwards, we will be providing hot drinks and biscuits in The Bone Mill, the little building on the shoreline for which Beach Buddies has had a long-standing lease thanks to the Gawne family.

There has been a considerable amount of work done on the inside of The Bone Mill this last few months, supervised by regular Beach Buddies volunteer Carol Pickering, so this gives a chance for everyone to have a look.

• Beach Buddies is sponsored by FIM Capital and receives annual funding from DEFA.

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.
