Jan: Oh hello. My name's Jan. Are you the right person to talk to about the Buckworth Conservation Group?

Peter: Yes, I'm Peter. I'm the secretary.

Jan: Good. I've just moved to this area, and I'm interested in getting involved. I was in a similar group where I used to live. Could you tell me something about your activities, please?

Peter: Of course. Well, we have a mixture of regular activities and special events. One of the regular ones is trying to keep the beach free of litter. A few of us spend a couple of hours a month on it, and it's awful how much there is to clear. I wish people would be more responsible and take it home with them.
