“We loved it, the pack arrived right at the time of our beach trip and this was right after the storm which in the bay we were visiting had 4 boats sink and wash up all over the beach. We cleaned the beach up and although a lot of it we wouldn't stick on the posters we managed to fill all our bags and 7 black bags in just 2 hours. The gloves are amazing the kids felt their hands were safe and comfortable at all times. We decided to clean and reuse the gloves and posts to look at what could go down our drains if the school didn't pick up the mess. This meant we completed the posters using school rubbish in the playground and looked at what the impact could be.”
