Record-breaking attempt at various locations
Beach Buddies is aiming to make Sunday's meeting its biggest one ever.
A mass cleanup of beaches is taking place at various locations across the Island between 10.30am and midday.
Dozens of public sector workers and politicians have pledged their support - now organisers are calling on the public to make it a record-breaking turnout.
As ever, all equipment will be provided free of charge.
