Thanks to Raoul’s clothing in Church street for judging the best dressed and donating the gift voucher for best dressed man and Aspirations in Bay street for the voucher for best dressed woman. A special shout out to former race caller Sean Cosgrove for an entertaining phantom Melbourne Cup 🏆 🐎

Over 18,000 loose plastic bottle caps were picked up by our volunteers in the past 12 months. 🛑🤯

Because loose caps are small and buoyant, they easily wash down storm drains and out to sea, threatening marine wildlife. Plus, their small size means standard recycling machinery can’t sort them, often sending them straight to landfill. ❌🌊

But there is a simple fix: Tethering them to the bottle. 🔗

Keeping the cap attached to the bottle forces them to stay together through the sorting process, turning thousands of pieces of loose beach litter into cleanly recyclable plastic. Europe already mandated tethered caps back in 2024 to stop this exact crisis.

It’s time for Victoria to lead by example and stop plastic pollution at the source. Please help us get this over the line! 🐋🌱
