We were delighted at @ballynamona.bsky.social to have the support of the @hsscu.bsky.social over the last year resulting in over 1100 kids getting out to the coast and learning about the marine environment and what they could do to protect it. #Community @cleancoasts.bsky.social

We’ve just made a new website! Lots of time and energy gone into it and would love you to visit it. The main improvement is that our servers are now based in Cork. Hollyhill to be exact. Neighbours to the $3.5 trillion people. Massive thanks to @rgsweetnam.zq.ie for super help with hosting.

We turn 10 years old in just a few short weeks. In 2025, we will be adding this street vac to our fleet and will be targeting cigarette butts and doing a whole education piece on it. We can’t wait. Here it is almost finished in “make-up”. More on this really soon.

Interesting to note that it's Labour ahead of the Soc Dems and the Greens for Climate policies as assessed by #FriendsOfTheEarth. Next Friday's GE is crucial to our next steps (or missteps) so please make sure you go out and vote.
