Grab your gloves and join clean up

Get ready to roll up your sleeves and tackle litter – Clean Up Australia Day is on again to tidy up Eurobodalla.

The nation-wide clean up rolls around on the first Sunday of March each year. Eurobodalla Council has supported Clean Up Australia Day for the past 22 years and is aiming to increase participation numbers.

Council’s clean-up project officer Maree Cadman is expecting about 50 sites to register and encouraged more.

“We’re hoping everyone will register again this year, put their gloves on, pick up a bag and take a bit of time to clean up their patch,” Ms Cadman said.

“If more sites register, more ground will be covered and hopefully we’ll see more people join in.

“It’s such an impactful event; last year 290 volunteers removed 43 cubic metres of rubbish from our waterways, parklands and beaches.”
