FREE KITS FOR CLEAN UP AUSTRALIA
CLEAN Up Australia Day returns on March 1, 2026, with individuals, families, schools and community groups urged to register now. More than 23 million volunteers have participated since the event began, including over 800,000 in 2025. Chair Pip Kiernan says litter—especially plastics, which made up 81% of rubbish collected in 2024 - remains a major environmental problem. Free Clean Up kits are available for volunteers, and early registrations enter a Coles voucher draw. Donations also support nationwide environmental action.
