Clean-up at Llanelli beach
A total of 28 bags of litter were filled during a clean-up of Llanelli beach as part of the Tidy Towns project.
Volunteers from Llanelli-based Celebration for the Nations took part in the clean-up which also included the removal of tyres, scrap metal and plastic barrels from the coastline.
Celebration for the Nations is an international festival of worship co-ordinated by Llanelli-based charities, World Horizons and Nations, alongside Korean movements, Revival Korea and Wild Step.
Tidy Towns project officer Kelly Shefford said: “Volunteers filled a total of 28 bags during the beach clean up, some of the rubbish was washed up but there was also a lot of litter that had been dropped by visitors.
“I would like to thank the volunteers for all their hard work and hopefully people will think twice before dropping litter in the future.”
Tidy Towns is a Welsh Assembly Government Funded initiative, delivered in partnership by Carmarthenshire County Council and Keep Wales Tidy, which aims to improve the quality of the local environment through community action.
