There have been five separate clean-ups since the last update, one of which included us being joined by Steven Shaw, Environmental Manager for Aberdeen City Council, on the 1^st of October. We discussed potential improvements to the area including the installation of bins, with closed lids, at the top of paths going down to the shore and information signage showing what is being done to keep the shore clean.

Marine clean-up stats to date:

Over 80 volunteers have participated;

• Bottles and cans recycled total = 3,615;
• Full bin-bags of waste total = 177 and
• Person effort, in minutes, collecting = 14,540 (242 hrs).
