Volunteer cleaners have been out in force to clean up a popular beach before the school holidays.
They collected litter and plastic discarded by holidaymakers on Weston-super-Mare’s beach.
Organiser Debbie Apted said: “We need to encourage people not to leave their litter on the beach and look after the wildlife.
“It may look clean now, but you can see so much [litter] coming up already and it’s only the start of the season.”

Prizes were awarded for the “weirdest, brightest, and most camouflaged” items of rubbish found during the clean-up.
