6th April 2015 saw a massive clean-up operation undertaken by Bolton Area Divers.

50 Students, Staff and Club members, together with their families turned out in force to take part in our first ever Dive Against Debris and Beach Clean up.

The Event took place in Trearddur Bay, Anglesey. The whole day ran from 9am to 4.30pm.

Following initial registration, people of all ages attended various briefings before getting stuck in!

Due to the large number of participants, Divers were divided up over three dive sites, depending on their levels of experience.

Whilst the Divers were enjoying their Debris dives, the non-divers did  a fantastic job of cleaning up the surrounding beaches and headland areas.

In total, we collected over 40kg of Debris!

The day finished with a BBQ for everyone and we also raised £155 for Project Aware through donations and a raffle.

Although this is a serious cause, we also had a lot of fun!

This will definitely become a regular event.

Thanks to Louise at Project Aware for her help in supporting this Event.
