Clean Up Australia Day in the Inner West
Wednesday 17 February 2021
Council is encouraging local residents and community groups to get involved at a Clean Up site in the Inner West.
This year is the 31st anniversary of Clean Up Australia, the nation's largest community-based environmental event.
Everyone’s invited to volunteer or register a site.
This year’s significant dates are:
• Business Clean Up Day, Tuesday 2 March
• Schools/Youth Clean Up Day, Friday, 5 March
• Clean Up Australia Day, Sunday 7 March
Last year in the Inner West, over 200 volunteers from schools, businesses and the community collected almost 500 bags of rubbish from 50 sites.
Clean Up Australia provides each registered site supervisor with waste bags and promotional materials upon registration, as well as essential equipment such as syringe containers, gloves, high vis vests, and basic first aid kits.
Council organises additional waste services to help collect the rubbish from the community clean up sites.
