Depending on how many people join, it should take around three hours to clean up.

Added Peter: "We're asking everyone who joins us on the day to bring their own litter pickers, bin bags and gloves.

"But if you haven't got a litter picker, then we've got a couple spare.

"Also if anyone is struggling to bring bags, we can provide them.”
