Bridlington beach toy waste a sign of throwaway culture - volunteers
Environment Correspondent, BBC Look North
Buckets, spades and other toys left on Bridlington's beaches are a sign of today's "throwaway attitude", clean-up volunteers have suggested. Members of Sewerby Women's Institute have spent the summer clearing the sand of the unwanted plastic items. Volunteer Maria Prchlik said visitors previously took buckets home with them and brought them back every year, but now they "grab their kids and just go".
