Volunteers to clean Spaldrick Bay

Beach Buddies volunteers are facing 'massive amounts of rubbish' at their weekly trek out this morning (Sun).

The charity is headed to Spaldrick Bay in Port Erin, which is said to be badly strewn with litter, made worse by recent stormy weather.

As usual, all are welcome to come along and meet at the entrance to Bradda Glen for 10.30am.

Residents are also being encouraged to nominate particularly messy parts of the coast for future cleaning via a new website, beachbuddies.net.
