I did it!! Today was a big job and I cleared over 80kg by myself 💪 That takes me to about 520kg of litter I've tidied in 2024!! Do you think I should go for 1000kg!? Let me know below ⬇️

If you like my videos, maybe you'd like to donate to my fundraising efforts? I'm raising money for Keep Scotland Beautiful Marine Conservation Society and Irvine Clean Up Crew Here is my link https://gofund.me/f0fba13f or it's also at the top of my page.

Thank you and don't stop cleaning (I'm away for a nap).

Hello! It was a bit calmer tonight and the beach needed my help.

We thought it was a good idea to do a litter survey too to see what kind of litter is getting washed in because of the bad weather. We surveyed over 400 pieces of litter. It was very messy!

I've added 29kg to my total. Not much more to go to get to my 500kg target.

Don't stop cleaning!

Please stop ruining the beach!

I managed 17kg in about 40 minutes this morning. There was so much rubbish!

In total Irvine Clean Up Crew lifted 28 bags of litter. If their bags were as heavy as mine, that is at least 140kg of stuff that shouldn't be left on a beach. We also rescued 42 towels. It's a bit silly and sad that some people think leaving this much mess is ok.

Hello! I'm back!

I joined Irvine Clean Up Crew for a litter pick this morning and found a bike and cleaned up lots of other mess from the bushes.

I've added 32kg to my total. That bike was heavy!

Well done to everyone else out helping this morning. We made a difference. 🌍🌿

Today was interesting. Scottish First Minister John Swinney came to Irvine Beach to talk to Irvine Clean Up Crew about the work they do. I told him about my song "Use a Bin" and helped him do some litter picking on the beach.

I hope he was impressed with our beach. It looked amazing today. If you fancy joining in you can find out how to contact Irvine Clean Up Crew on their page.

Hi guys,

No video today, it was too noisy along the road. Another 7 kg of litter collected. I even found a crisp packet the same age as me!

Thanks to everyone who stopped to say well done. It makes me feel good when other people notice the difference.

Keep on tidying!

We were listening to "Its a Sin" in the car and started singing "Use a Bin" instead. I wanted to make a wee video to try and encourage everybody to remember to put their rubbish in a bin and not just drop it on the ground.

I hope you like it. Please share so that everyone hears the message to "Use a Bin"

It's World Environment Day today. What one small thing could you do to help our environment?

I'm cycling lots to my school and clubs so that we don't need to use the car so often.
