Tremendous Clean up Success!
26th September 2016
Organisers of CUTW would like to thank the 300 plus volunteers, collaborators, supporters and sponsors for pulling off another Gibraltar-wide clean up this past weekend.
The “mountain of waste” was created at the Eco Park facility, with volunteers ferrying load after load to the site based at Flint Road. (see attached picture) Various skips were also filled with the final removal of all rubbish collected to be completed in the next few days.
Volunteers should be very proud of their efforts to help make Gibraltar’s natural environment cleaner, liberated from plastic menace and other harmful materials. Their hard work and hands-on action has also helped highlight Gibraltar’s litter problem.
Contractors’ waste compounded the build up of litter present at various hotspots. These matters will be taken up by the campaigners with all relevant authorities.
A long held objective of the campaign was also achieved this week with the removal of a large steel drum at Seven Sisters by GibDock cranes.
The ESG sincerely thanks the 300 plus volunteers made up of schools, businesses, clubs, associations and Govt agencies for rolling up their sleeves in this, the 12th year, of the Clean up Campaign on the Rock. Well done!!
A full report detailing the weekend’s great efforts will be published soon.
