A BEACH volunteer group has already sold hundreds of calendars in just a couple of weeks.

The Canvey Bay Watch 2019 calendars are now on sale and proving to be as popular as ever.

Barry Campagna, chairman of the group, said: “We made about 400 and I think about half of those are sold already. Some places have sold out of the calendars.

“We think it is a lovely way to catch all the beauty of Thorney Bay at different times of the year.

“It is also a good way to promote the bay and remind people of our great beaches we have on our doorsteps on Canvey.

“People really like to buy them as stocking fillers for Christmas.”

The calendar is now available in the new size of A4.

They can be purchased from The Bay Cafe, Cocos Coffee Shop and Canvey Autos, Canvey and are priced at £5 each.

This is the second calendar the group has produced.
