Beach Clean Boards are popping up around the island, encouraging us to pick up litter.
The kits contain reusable bags to collect rubbish and litter-picking arms to use after a visit to the beach.
These are being stored in colourful pop-up boards, which have been created by prisoners at La Moye.
Beach-goers can find the boards by local cafés and restaurants at the following beaches:
Bonne Nuit
The Gunsite
St Brelade
Greve de Lecq
Rozel
Havre des Pas
Bel Royal
The boards have been set up as a collaboration between Plastic Free Jersey, Surfers against Sewage and the Government of Jersey's Climate Change Engagement Team.
Jane Burns, the government's Climate Change Engagement Manager, hopes they will help to reduce litter and protect our seas:
"In peak places where there are lots of people, we tend to find there becomes lots of litter and that is how plastics get into the sea.
"These beach boards have been taken to the most popular beaches around the island where we know there'll be lots of people.
"We thought it would be a nice idea to help people pick up the litter when they've finished with their day.
"We really need to keep these beaches clean so we don't become responsible for plastics or other litter entering our ocean."
