OH WE ROO LIKE TO BE BESIDE THE SEASIDE

Takeaway firm Deliveroo has started beach deliveries – but has promised to clean up beaches too.

The app will now accept orders to UK beaches and has launched a scheme where beach visitors can get Deliveroo credit for buckets of rubbish they collect and hand in. The clean-up campaign starts at Brighton beach this weekend before visiting Bournemouth, Southend, Edinburgh and Torquay over the following weekends.

Keep Britain Tidy chief executive Allison Ogden-Newton said: “The cost of cleaning up is likely to be close to £1billion a year. This campaign is a reminder that we can all do our bit to help.”
