The UK’s leading marine charity and the water company that supplies Cornwall are joining forces to highlight the huge problems created by flushing wet wipes down the loo – with the help of a giant monster made out of wipes! 

The Marine Conservation Society (MCS) is bringing Wallace the Wet Wipe Monster to Gyllyngvase Beach, Falmouth on Thursday September 8 for a joint event with South West Water (from 11am).

Wallace will be the centrepiece of a day aimed at helping the public understand the financial and environmental cost of putting the wrong stuff down the loo.

If you can’t make the event visit the website and sign the petition for clearer labelling –www.wetwipesturnnasty.com and www.southwestwater.co.uk/loveyourloo
