The annual Future Centre Trust/Green Nation Clean Up Barbados took place today at various locations around the island.

Scores of volunteers from businesses, churches, schools, youth groups and the Barbados Defence Force grabbed their rakes, shovels and wheelbarrows, donned their hats and gloves and removed what others had dumped in gullies, on roadways and on beaches.
