Temperatures reached 31 degrees on June 24 and 25 which prompted people to descend on the seafront.

But they seemed to do little to deter people from littering as once again volunteers were forced to clean up the beach.
A council spokesman said: “Please make sure you do not leave litter behind – use the bins and if they are full take your rubbish home.

“Thank you to those residents who turned out in the evening to clear up what they could.
