What are Grange Soroptimists doing to help the Environment?

On August 3rd  Grange Soroptimists  with Hannah Barnes from  the Morecambe Bay Partnership   https://www.morecambebay.org.uk/ organised  a Beach clean and  were astounded that 50 people turned out  to pick up litter on Grange foreshore to improve the marine environment. 46.5 Kg of rubbish was collected in 2 hours!  This was a very appropriate project as July 27th – Aug 11th is National Marine week.  https://www.wildlifetrusts.org/get-involved/campaign/national-marine-week

 

The Soroptimists  will be on  the Promenade, Grange-over-Sands LA11 7DH between the two cafes on Saturday 17th August  2 – 4 pm for the “From Trash to Treasure”  event ( weather permitting)! This will use  some of the items collected to produce a work of art. ALL WELCOME especially children ( must be accompanied by an adult)
