The MARINE CONSERVATION SOCIETY runs the biggest annual clean up and beach litter survey in the UK. During the 2008 event 374 beaches all around the UK were cleaned and surveyed, sadly only 12 of all those beaches surveyed were in the North West England Region, (Solway to the Mersey). We would like to see a significant increase in that number in our region, therefore we asking for your help.
Could you and half a dozen friends spare a couple of hours during the weekend 19/20th. September 2009 to clean and complete a simple survey of litter over a short length of your local or favourite beach? In addition to providing valuable information in the battle against marine litter you would also be helping to save & protect our wonderful marine wildlife.
