Clean Up Australia Day, and its accompanying events, Schools Clean Up Day on Friday 2 March and Business Clean Up Day on Tuesday 27 February, are just around the corner.

Over the last 27 years volunteers have donated more than 32 million hours at over 171 thousand locations across the country. Together they have removed the equivalent of 344 thousand ute loads of rubbish.

Clean Up Australia Day is more important than ever, according to Ian Kiernan AO, chairman and founder of Clean Up Australia.

“What is clear is that our increased dependency on single use items is making Clean Up Australia Day even more relevant than it was when it started 27 years ago so I urge you to get your friends, family, team mates and colleagues together and sign up for 2018 Clean Up Australia Day on Sunday 4 March,” said Mr Kiernan.
