There is now a petition calling for a national ban expanded polystyrene bodyboards after 16,000 of them were left on our beaches last year.
480 snapped plastic bodyboards were recovered from just two south-west beaches by Keep Britain Tidy ‘Beach Care’ programme.

SolRX is classed as a waterproof sports sunscreen. Unlike regular sunscreen, sport sunscreens are usually tested to measure how water resistant a formula is before its Sun Protection Factor (SPF) starts to wear off. While such testing is tailored for prolonged water immersion, such as sunscreen for swimmers, it can also reflect sweat resistance.
Wetsuits work by catching a thin layer of water between your skin and the neoprene. Your body heats up this water and keeps you warm so it’s imperative that the wetsuit fits properly or cold water will flush the warm water out. Neoprene acts as insulation against the colder water so the thicker the neoprene the better the warmer the wetsuit.
There are so many beautiful beaches around our coastline but it is difficult to assess the dangers at new beaches.
Many surfers wear autumn wetsuits through to early summer as the sea temperature in Autumn is not dis-similar to June and July. So if you are lucky enough to be planning a weekend or half-term trip to the sea then buying your child a wetsuit will last them through to Summer.
