Point of Ayre venue for beach cleaning

BEACH Buddies is going to the northern beaches again this weekend with a session for volunteers meeting at the Point of Ayre on Sunday morning March 13th at 10.30am. The meeting point is the car park on the eastern side of the lighthouse .

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.
