Beach Clean in Formby

On Thursday 20th August, the Sea Life Centre in Manchester hosted a beach Clean on our Bubble beach.

"We at SEA LIFE believe that helping the environment is the best way to protect our native sea creatures around Britain. That's why we're working with the National Trust to host Beach Cleans in the North West. This not only helps the marine life within it, but will provide a better environment for us all. As our native marine life can't talk to say thanks, we also give every volunteer FREE entry to SEA LIFE Manchester to show our appreciation!".

This is their tweet....

This is also the tweet from Just Bee Drinks who also helped with the clean up.

Just Bee Drinks also teamed up to get involved with the Beach Clean with Selfridges.

Well done to everyone that helped and a great big THANKYOU to all involved.

There is a big beach clean event at Formby this year. Formby's beach clean is on Monday 21st of September from 10.00 am. It will be at Freshfield beach again (on the national trust property).
