MCS Beach Clean

On Saturday 20^th September, Rossi Ice Cream joined forces with the Marine Conservation Society for the Beachwatch Great British Beach Clean at Thorpe Bay, Southend. Beachwatch is a beach cleaning and litter surveying event held at numerous locations across the country on the third weekend of September each year, and is now the ‘most influential fight against marine litter in the UK’. The morning was a great success! It was amazing to see so many volunteers sparing time to help towards the fantastic programme organised by MCS.

MCS said: “Some of our best-loved marine wildlife is under threat from the waste and litter in our seas, with hundreds of species accidentally eating or becoming entangled in litter. It’s also dangerous for people and damaging to our tourism and fishing industries. We all have a part to play in turning the tide on litter”.
