On Tuesday 1 May children from Woodcot Primary School at Gosport, will be taking part in a Beach Buddies Beach Clean event at Lee on the Solent Beach.
The 20 children are all winners of a competition set by the Beach Buddies Workshop Team, Gosport Borough Council, Gosport & Fareham Inshore Rescue Society and Hampshire Wildlife Trust. It was at these workshops that the children learnt all about the local marine wildlife, dangers of beach litter to the marine environment and Sea Safety.
The Beach Clean event will take place at Beach Road Car Park, Lee on the Solent, from 10am. A Beach Picture design session will follow at around 10.30am and this will involve members or the Council’s Countryside Section.
At 11am Medals and Certificates will be presented to all the children for their help in keeping Gosport’s Beaches Clean. This will be done by the Mayor of Gosport, Councillor June Cully, and a representative of Southern Water, sponsors of the event.
