Dedicated locals are doing their best to keep Leisure Bay pristine.
A one woman’s crusade against litter is making a difference to the village of Leisure Bay in KwaZulu-Natal, South Coast Herald reports.
Vanessa Murray, off her own bat, is cleaning every stand and street.

Another disturbing find made yesterday (July 20) was hundreds of disposable nappies dumped into the Thongazi river.

This video was taken by cleaner Sihle Clarino Khumalo.
