The final Beach Buddies cleaning session of the year has taken place today. (Sun)
Volunteers were at Ballaugh Cronk for the 46th event of 2013.
Over 1,000 people have been involved in the initiative throughout the year, clearing rubbish from the Island's beaches and helping to protect marine wildlife and seabirds.
Beach Buddies creator and organiser Bill Dale is thanking everyone who has helped throughout the year - and says he hopes Christmas will bring a sponsor for a new trailer which the organisation needs to continue its work in 2014.
Beach cleaning sessions will continue in January.
