Devon container spill: 'Impossible task' to gather incontinence pads-_115168153_nappy1.jpg
The cleanup of thousands of incontinence pads washed up on a beach is an "impossible task", a local volunteer has said.


A container washed up on Tuesday at Bucks Mills in north Devon, then Storm Aiden spread its contents for miles.


Anne-Marie Everleigh, from Plastic Free North Devon, described the pollution as "heartbreaking".


She said: "Packets of nappies as far as the eye can see and it just seems like an impossible task."

Volunteers and council workers have been attempting to clean the spillage since Tuesday.


However, the contents have been spread about 13 miles (21km) from Bucks Mills to Barricane Beach north of Woolacombe by the stormy weather conditions.
