Lytham St Annes Beach users
have nothing to wine about
LYTHAM St Annes Beach has played host
to a sea of volunteers as the Barefoot Wine Beach Rescue Project to place on on
Saturday, 11 June 2016. It is part of a nationwide initiative to keep the UK
beaches 'Barefoot Friendly.' This event kicked off its 9th year running in the
UK, that sees Members of the public being invited to come down and join beach
cleans. Olga Senkina, Marketing Director EMEA at Barefoot Wine and Bubbly,
commented:- "At Barefoot
Wine
and Bubbly we think there's nothing better than to spread local love and we are
excited to be heading to Blackpool to help the local community clean up their
beach. I'm sure the scales will bring out the fun competitive nature in the
volunteers and help us to collect even more litter than last year. Of course, we
will have some of our Barefoot Wine and Bubbly on hand to raise a TOEst as we
celebrate the hard work of all the volunteers!"
The project will run across the country throughout the summer in partnership
with environmental charity, Surfers Against Sewage (SAS), who, for the last 26
years, have worked tirelessly to protect the UK's oceans, waves, beaches and
wildlife. It's a welcome return for the group, which will be working with the
Barefoot Wine Beach Rescue Project for the
ninth year running and helping communities make Britain's beaches barefoot
friendly for all to enjoy. Dom Ferris, Projects Manager at Surfers Against
Sewage, said:- "Each year we are astounded by the level of support and
community spirit we see at the Barefoot Wine Beach Rescue Project. This year we
have already had a record level of interest from keen volunteers, so can't wait
to work with Barefoot and the local community again this year to work towards
our goal of reducing UK beach litter by 50% by 2020." |
