Charity founder says it's an 'honour'
Beach Buddies Isle of Man is up for an international Energy Globe award at the end of the month.
The charity, which started in 2006, has cleaned over 200 different beaches and had a total of 20,000 volunteers since inception.
It follows the group winning the Energy Globe award at a national level in London - which pushed it through to the international stage.
The ceremony takes place in Norway at the end of the month.
Founder Bill Dale told Manx Radio it's an honour for the charity and the Island:
