First volunteer event of 2019 in the south
This weekend sees the first volunteer event of the year in the south of the Island for FIM Capital Beach Buddies.
Tomorrow morning (20 Jan), teams will meet at Langness peninsula - an area not visited by a Beach Buddies team "for some time".
Volunteers are asked to meet at the main Langness car park from 10.30am, with the session lasting until midday.
There were 109 volunteers at the Ballaugh event and a record-breaking 229 at last week’s special event at the Mooragh Park lake, so the charity is hopeful for another big turnout this time around.
As usual, Beach Buddies provides all the necessary equipment, and new volunteers are especially welcome.
