Some of the weirdest items dumped into Manchester’s canals this year have been revealed after volunteers recovered 300 bags of waste.
In all, the 200-strong ‘army’ of volunteers from Sea Life Manchester, have carried out 10 canal clean-ups in 2022. They have recovered nearly 600kg of waste.
The 588.9kg of rubbish included some weird items, too. Volunteers have uncovered airport luggage, a mattress, ladders, and even a full set of metal teapots.
