Today my Dad and I managed to cover a 6.5 km stretch of New Brighton and Waimairi beach as part of a New Brighton beach clean-up. Organised by Sustainable Coastlines, Corona Extra and Fly My Pretties, the clean-up brought together 70 volunteers across the city. The weather held up quite nicely, making for a highly worthwhile 3000 litre rubbish collection!
