SEDGEMOOR District Council is supporting Litter Free Coast and Sea Somerset in their latest campaign by urging residents to join them in their Christmas advent countdown.

 Litter Free Coast and Sea Somerset is giving people something different to jump out of bed for —a Christmas advent calendar with a twist.

Behind every door this December, residents will find top tips, videos, poems and pictures all explaining how they can take care of the coast this Christmas.

You don’t have to live beside the sea to take part in your home or in your town what you put down the drain and the toilet can still have an impact on the coastal environment.

Tips will include how to shop for the best face scrubs that don’t contain nasty microplastics, how to ditch the party plastics and the importance of keeping your pipes clear by properly disposing of cooking fat from your festive feast.

The Christmas advent countdown will be on Facebook and Twitter
