Hello! I’m a volunteer beach cleaner and have been doing clean ups around the coast for a few years now. Since the pandemic began, I have stepped up my efforts and have been carrying out a series of beach cleans in my local area during lockdown. My hope is to raise awareness of MPS related conditions while also highlighting the impact plastic pollution has on our coastlines and wildlife habitats.

I'm raising money for the MPS Society UK who have helped me, my family and many other families through some tough times. Your contribution will make an impact. Every little bit helps. Thank you for your support. I've included information about MPS Society UK below.
