“As I walked along the shore of one of my local beaches here in beautiful Cornwall, I was saddened to see just how much harmful plastic waste littered the sand.

I began frequent beach cleans gathering up as much plastic pollution as I could carry and my Inspire Tides journey began! Despite being a danger to the environment, I couldn’t help noticing just how colourful and beautiful the plastics looked and thought others might feel the same. I asked myself how I could reuse these pieces and spread the word about plastic pollution and environmental issues.”
