Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing concerning Palma
beach
, where I have recently been to. The issue is that the
beach
is full of litter that people have left after spending a holiday on it. In fact, it is almost impossible to find a free sport without bumping on a glass of broken bottles, beer cans, wrappings, and watermelon peels, etc. It is understood that it is not only an ecology problem but
also
unsanitary conditions. As well as children may harm themselves stepping on the broken glass. I strongly suggest you tackle
this
problem as soon as possible.
First
, it is recommended to send a cleaning team to the
beach
and remove all the trash.
In addition
, the administration might give an announcement for those who want to volunteer and help with picking up trash. The
second
measure will be introducing a fine for dumping waste on the
beach
and providing a sufficient amount of garbage bins. I hope you will address my complaint at the earliest opportunity. Sincerely yours, Mariya

The Greeting

Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.

Always start an informal letter in the ways:

  • Dear + name
  • Hi / Hello + name

‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.

For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:

  • Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
  • Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
