Bourne Community College student raises funds for Final Straw Foundation through beach clean

A dedicated student from Bourne Community College has raised an impressive £331 for the Final Straw Foundation after completing a three-hour litter pick along Hayling Beach.

Etta took on the challenge to help protect the local coastline and raise awareness of the importance of keeping our beaches and oceans free from litter and plastic pollution.

Spending three hours collecting rubbish from the beach, Etta demonstrated a fantastic commitment to protecting the environment and making a positive difference to the local community.

The money raised will go towards supporting the work of the Final Straw Foundation, a charity dedicated to reducing plastic pollution and protecting the marine environment through education, community action and environmental projects.

Etta's efforts highlight how one person's actions can make a real difference. By giving up her time to clean up Hayling Beach, she has not only helped the local environment but also inspired others to think about how they can play their part in tackling pollution.

Raising £331 is a fantastic achievement, and everyone at Bourne Community College can be proud of Etta's dedication, kindness and enthusiasm for making a difference.

Well done, Etta, for showing that small actions can lead to a big impact!
