Clean Up Australia Day - Sunday 2 March

Join Our Biggest Ever Clean Up on Sunday 2 March

Imagine the difference we could all make to our environment by uniting on one day to tackle litter?

You can make a real impact this Sunday 2 March on Clean Up Australia Day — the nation's largest community litter clean-up of the year!

Join over 700,000 like-minded volunteers across Australia to help banish plastics, coffee cups, and other unsightly litter from our parks, streets and waterways.

How to join in

It's easy to find a Clean Up near you using the online search. Some events scheduled across Newcastle are listed below.

Once you've found an event of interest, Clean Up Australia encourages registering online by clicking the 'Join' button. This helps site supervisors to anticipate numbers and notify participants should their Clean Up be rescheduled.

On the day, wear sturdy, enclosed shoes and remember to be sun smart (hat, sunglasses and sunscreen). Bring a (reusable) bottle of water and, if you're able to, your own pair of gloves.
