Sunday, 5 February 2023 oceans of the world. What was started over thirty years ago, by an “average Australian” who had a simple idea to make a difference in his own backyard has now become the nation’s largest community-based environmental event.

More than 20 million Aussies have participated in Clean Up Australia activities and events over the past three decades. Because many hands make light work, why not assemble a team to volunteer for a day to tidy up the neighborhood? This is a great way for residents, businesses and community groups to make a positive impact while working together and enjoying the great outdoors. More information, including how to register or join a Clean Up, can be found on www.cleanup.org.au/create.
