BEACH Buddies is cleaning up at Knockaloe after the Royal Agricultural Show with a volunteer session from 10.30am on Sunday, August 14th.
Our big red BB truck will be there, somewhere in the middle of the show ground.
•  Beach Buddies is sponsored by FIM Capital and receives annual funding from DEFA.
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.
