Back to the beach
On 24 May we were able to get back to our program of beach cleans on “our patch” between Bent Hill and Cobbold Point. And, thanks to the recent relaxations, we were able to finish with a convivial visit to the Fludyers Hotel.
And on 8 June, appropriately “World Ocean Day”, we were pleased to support Languard Nature Reserve with a clean on the estuary beach and environs. Although most of us were familiar with the reserve, litter picking was an opportunity to take (literally) a closer look at both the nature and architecture around the old fort.
