I'm excited to be joining director Pip Piper & star of the film "Jo in the Water" Jo Bateman for the Q&A. Will I see some of your friendly faces there? Did you see Channel 4's Dirty Business? This film seeks out joy & inspiration amongst the many amazing individuals fighting to make a difference.

On Saturday, we’re building an artificial beach in the Italian Gardens to show just how much single-use plastic is polluting our planet — and we need YOU! Bring the plastic you hate most & dump it on our beach as a powerful protest. If you litter pick on the way then bring that too!

A big THANK YOU to everyone who took part in the Big Plastic Count last year. I’ve now had the stats through from @sascampaigns.bsky.social for Weston and a whopping 366 people here took part in the count counting 9,089 plastic items altogether! I can’t thank you enough for your part in this.
A chart depicting the various categories of plastics submitted by residents in Weston-super-Mare during the count month of July.  For example, 1,343 items were plastic snack wrapper and packets.  That was the highest and 64 items was the lowest for bathroom hard plastics.

It was an absolute joy on Tuesday to work with 3 of the students from Weston College studying TV, Film & Creative Production. They are creating a digital content package for us as part of their coursework & visited 2 of our business champions. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished product!
