LITTERPICKERS will be in action on the banks of the Thames tomorrow (Sunday, 7 August) when the monthly Grays Beachcomber event takes place.

Residents are invited to join the group for the pick, which will last from 10.30am to 12.30pm, starting from Thurrock Yacht Club on Thames Road (RM17 6JF).

Organiser Steve Catchpole says: "Although the large bulky plastic debris is not currently evident on the foreshore, there is still plenty of pesky pieces to pick up. As usual all equipment will be provided.

"If you can join us, please don't forget your suncream."
