Led by Angela Chick

On a wet and windy Thursday morning, India and Angela headed out for a run, armed with gloves and bags and the determination to tidy up the area they spotted on their run on Tuesday. It was very wet and windy but they were treated to a visit from a seal who made sure they were doing a good job. With plenty of fast food wrappers, beer cans, plastic food wrapping, various fishing waste (Angela found a half used bag of bait with a very stinky squid in it), plenty of wet wipes and cotton bud sticks. They each filled a bag before emptying them into the bin and heading off home to work. Now… for many cups of tea to warm up!

The seal was down by the Eastney landing for the Hayling ferry - right by the RNLI building at the end of Fort Cumberland Road 😍
