The aim is to gather plastic & rubbish, especially the knotted/tangled up stuff, BEFORE it reaches the sea.
In a fun way (any excuse!)
With coffee at Playa Golf Hotel Sitges, next to where the river meets the sea. As we assemble.

Before doing some good work until tired & finishing with a drink at Hola Beach Bar, a little further down (be rude not to!).
And possibly grab any washed up/discarded rubbish, which the Council target (or don’t… some feel!), on the walk down.
Suggest:
- Gloves
- Tongs
- Heavy duty bags
