BDEC organises 2 beach clean ups for Tangaroa Blue annual event

In October, BDEC took part in the annual Tangaroa Blue WA Beach Clean Up by organising two events in Busselton and Dunsborough. Volunteers from all across WA took part by choosing a stretch of coastline and cleaning up all rubbish in the area, including the rivers, waterways and pathways that surround the beach.

In Busselton we covered the stretch of beach from Mill Road Carpark to Dolphin Road Carpark as well as the footpaths. In Dunsborough we covered from Elmore Road lagoon on the Dunsborough foreshore to Old Dunsborough Boat Ramp.

We were pleased to find the beaches relatively clean, but still managed to remove 5 bags of litter across the 2 events, the majority of the litter was food packaging and plastics.

Thank you to all the volunteers who came out to take part and braved the changeable weather.

Special thanks to our volunteer Lucy for organising the events.
