CORFU. With a team spirit and lots of fun, volunteers cleaned up Almyros beach in North Corfu on Sunday 29th April.

The clean-up was organized by #healthy_little_eaters along with Greek and non-Greek local residents as part of the Let's Do It Greece and Let's Do It Corfu projects.

A project that brought us all closer together for a few hours, united by a common purpose and concern for our future.

Some statistics from Almyros:

- 45 volunteers
- 1.5km (out of 7km) of beach was cleaned
- 2.5 hours of work (10:00 - 12:30)
- 60 bags (65x90) filled with plastic and other rubbish
