Beach Buddies x IOM Green Party

We are excited to partner with Beach Buddies for a community event to collect as much litter as we can on one of the Isle of Man Beaches on Sunday the 18th of March 10.30 - 12.00.

We haven’t chosen a location as yet, however it will be published nearer the time. If there is a spot you think needs particular attention please let us know at committee@greenparty.im and we’ll see what we can do.

More information about Beach Buddies:

Beach Buddies was founded in October 2006 when two people were walking the beach with their dogs at Kirk Michael on the west coast of the Isle of Man in the British Isles.

Until then, no one had any idea of the scale of the problem facing the Isle of Man. Within a few weeks, two people had collected hundreds of bags of rubbish, some of the materials dating back as far as 30 years.

It was then clear that the Isle of Man had a massive problem with rubbish on its beautiful beaches. A decision was made – ‘It’s not enough to just stand and stare.’
