Uniting for a Cleaner Estate

The initiative focused on tackling the litter problem along the Atterbury side of the estate, with the collective goal of preserving the environment and fostering a stronger sense of community responsibility. This inspiring event not only showcased the power of unity but also highlighted the pressing need for environmental consciousness.

Coming Together for a Greener Tomorrow:

At precisely 12 PM, residents assembled at the estate’s clubhouse, ready to take action and make a difference. Led by Madeleine and Dello Marais, and with the support of Morne van der Walt from AF Trading, the clean-up initiative was destined for success. It was heartwarming to witness individuals driven by their shared love for the estate, unite with a common purpose.

Picking up the Pieces of Carelessness:

As the enthusiastic group embarked on their cleanup journey, they discovered a staggering amount of litter that had thoughtlessly accumulated over time. From fast-food wrappers and coffee cups to beer bottles and chip packets, the sheer volume of waste was astonishing. The debris not only marred the aesthetics of the estate but also posed potential harm to the environment and wildlife.

With unwavering determination, the volunteers worked together, walking along the Atterbury gate, and meticulously picking up each piece of discarded rubbish. Their dedication and willingness to give their time without expecting anything in return exemplified the true essence of community spirit.

A Disheartening Reminder:

Despite the inspiring efforts of the residents, an unfortunate incident served as a stark reminder of the challenges faced. As the clean-up was done, one resident drove past the group, hooting in a disrespectful manner, and shockingly threw a Corona beer bottle out of their vehicle. This incident not only dampened the spirits of the volunteers but also highlighted the need for greater awareness and behavioral change when it comes to waste management.
