Founder Bill Dale hoping for more success next year
Volunteers at Beach Buddies have been thanked by its founder for making it such an amazing year.
The profile of the group has grown rapidly in 2017 and Bill Dale has given talks on its success in a number of different countries.
He was also sought by government to help out with the cleaning of the Island's greenlanes.
Mr Dale hopes next year can be just as good - if not better:
Isle of Man inflation eases slightly to 2.8% in October
Progress on autism strategy welcomed
Paper car tax discs cost DOI £7,500 each month
Just over half the vehicles examined were defective
