Staff members, residents, and businesses have turned out
across Blacktown for Clean Up Australia Day.
Almost 100 community, businesses and school clean up sites
were registered across Blacktown City for the annual event.
Blacktown City Mayor Tony Bleasdale OAM said he was
proud of the effort put in by the Blacktown community.
“It is very encouraging to see businesses as well as residents
donning gloves and cleaning our streets, parks and reserves
for Clean Up Australia Day,” Mayor Bleasdale said.
“The Alpha Phi Omega Association, the Sathya Sai
International Organisation, the Order of the Knights of Rizal,
and the Woodcroft Festival Committee, are just some of the
groups participating in Clean Up Australia Day.”
“The benefits of cleaning up our sites are significant, it boosts
community pride, our city is more appealing to visitors, and it
encourages long-term behavioural change.”
Cleanaway, Beak & Johnston City Kitchen, De Bortoli Wines,
Systems Connect, Greens General Food's Pty Ltd, and
Seymour Whyte - M4 Smart Motorway, gathered at various
locations across the City for Clean Up Australia Day.
Staff from Blacktown City Council also took to the streets
during their lunch break to Clean Up.
