Here are the official details of the beach clean up this coming Friday.

Impressive as big tides and storms maybe, they inevitably leave large amounts of rubbish washed up onto the beaches of the #Sefton coast.

Tidelines full of seaweed, driftwood and organic debris are a good thing for the habitat as it provides refuge for invertebrates that many of our birds (and later in the year Natterjack Toads) feed on.

Unfortunately the tides bring in tonnes of man-made refuse too.
If you'd like to help clean some of the litter on the Sefton coast, why not join the "Friends of the Sefton Coast" volunteer army for a litter pick at Ainsdale beach this Friday (12.1.18)?

Volunteers will be meeting beside Ainsdale Discovery Centre (PR8 2QB) at 10.30am for a beach clean-up session that will last till 1pm.

For more details, please call Sefton Council's coast and countryside team on 0151 934 2967.

What a fantastic idea. Please do another one at the weekend for people who work in the week ☺
