BEACH Buddies is going to a totally new venue for a weekend event when we will be tackling the area around the St Ninian’s Upper High school at Bemahague, Onchan from 10.30am on Sunday (June 15th).
A good friend of Beach Buddies – Phil Corlett, a long-standing member of Isle of Man Friends of the Earth, has been reporting for some time that this area is in dire need of a clean-up, hopefully setting an example which will lead to a long-term change to the amount of rubbish around the school grounds and nearby streets and hedges.
Our weekend events are for everyone – families, social groups, sports clubs, companies, individuals, young and old. A warm welcome always awaits. Please say hello if you are taking part for the very first time.
• Beach Buddies is sponsored by FIM Capital. We are the biggest charity on the Isle of Man in terms of numbers (more than 20,000 different volunteers since 2006) but we are very small in terms of donations and we have lots of plans to continue to improve our special island, not just on beaches, but everywhere – parks, forests, glens, footpaths, plantations, hills, mountains – the entire island. If you can help please look at our website www.beachbuddies.org.im
