Surfers Against Sewage Litter-pick Completed at Brighton

Surfers Against Sewage (SAS) and Barefoot Wine have completed a very successful beach clean-up at Brighton this week, removing over 221kg's of waste from the beach with the help of 56 people. This was day 4 of a week long national 'Barefoot Friendly' beach litter tour.

Andy Cummins, Campaign Officer at SAS, said "The beach clean was followed by a delicious, free BBQ on the beach for all volunteers. For those who wanted to stay on afterwards, volunteers, friends and family enjoyed an evening of fun surf quizzes and free Barefoot wine at the Nivea Sun Yellow Wave Beach Sports Venue."

Emily Smith, marketing manager, Barefoot wine, said "It is a real honour for Barefoot wine to work in partnership with SAS on the 'Making Beaches Barefoot Friendly' campaign. Beaches are such an important part of our environment and it's crucial that we treat them with respect so that they remain fun, clean and safe places for us to enjoy."

SAS and Barefoot Wines would like to thanks all the volunteers who helped out with the event.
