An environmental group are inviting people to get involved with a number of community litter picks throughout the summer.

Weymouth and Portland Marine Litter Project are hosting four litter picks across Weymouth and Portland from June 30-September 29.

Previous events hosted by the group have proved very popular and equipment is provided along with free hot drinks and biscuits.

The litter picks will take place at 10am on June 30 at Chesil Cove, July 28 at Radipole Lake, August 25 at Ferrybridge and September 29 through Weymouth town centre.

Recently, Dave Taylor, co-founder of the group undertook a solo litter pick of Weymouth Beach after a day of sunshine.

The environmental activist spent two hours cleaning the shore which was left in ‘one of the worst states he has ever seen.’
