The lads from Rapanui got in touch today, to let us know about a beach clean planned for the end of the month.

Bonchurch Beach CleanIt’s taking place on the beach near Brighstone and is being organised in collaboration with the Marine Conservation Society.

They organise beach cleans every quarter and normally work the Freshwater and Totland beaches, but this time are moving further around the coast.

It’s not just about picking up rubbish either, as the Marine Conservation Society will record the data of what and how much is removed from the beach.

It was from surfing in this part of the Wight and falling ill because of the polluted water that inspired the Drake-Knight brothers to found their Rapanui clothing range.

If you want to take part in the beach clean, bring some gloves and meet in the reception are of Grange Farm at 10am.

The farm are generously providing hot refreshments during the course of the beach clean.
