THE dedicated volunteers of Irvine Clean Up Crew filled 27 bags of rubbish after bins were emptied along Irvine Beach on Sunday. The volunteers – led by Rachel Little, Tamara Millard, Alan Hughes and Sandra Cuthbertson – rolled up their sleeves and headed to the beach when they heard the bins had been emptied. One passer by, Catherine Bayliss said: “Well done to all who picked up litter on the beach, my friend and I were commenting how clean and tidy it looked.” This is just the latest effort by this band of litter pickers who are busy cleaning up Irvine, Kilwinning and beyond.
