Subconsciously we’ve been doing beach cleanups for years – perhaps fuelled by a childhood fascination with ‘flotsam and jetsam’. Here we are today, still scooping up those beer can rings, washed up plastic bags, old hats, fishing gear, lego, and any other bits and bobs that have been left on the beaches or accidentally washed into the sea. 

Some days we only need to put a few bits in our pockets. Other days we fill a bag. Occasionally we need to call in help to move something large up the beach. 

Usually as first on the beach each morning we get first dibs on the rubbish that has floated in overnight. Each and every sunrise we capture is framed against the backdrop of a beautiful sandy beach and Cornish horizon. We acknowledge that we directly benefit from this natural beauty and categorically do not take it for granted!
