Beach Buddies to launch new scheme
An Island-based environmental charity is inviting people to attend the launch of a new project today.
Beach Buddies will officially announce the creation of a new project, "River Buddies" at 2 o'clock at the Laxey Washing Floors.
Following discussions with the Manx Wildlife Trust and the Department of Environment, the group has agreed on a new initiative to clean up the Island’s rivers from significant amounts of rubbish which has gathered over many years.
Founder Bill Dale says you would be surprised what is found in our Island's rivers:
Everyone is welcome to attend, and a free beer or soft drink is on offer afterwards in the Mines Tavern.
