What a brilliant idea from a local transition year student to spend the next 13 weeks volunteering doing beach cleans.

This was week 1 gathered in Gyles Quay today. Perhaps it's an idea for others to replicate?

🌊 Do you swim, dip or enjoy the water at your local beach, river or lake? We want to hear from you!

Each year, we identify official bathing areas so they can be monitored for safety, water quality, and usage and your input is vital in shaping these decisions. Tell us if existing sites should stay designated and suggest new locations.

When sharing your views, consider:
• How the area is used and how many people swim there
• What facilities are available and how accessible is the location
• Any safety concerns
