More special events... Clean Up Australia Day Clean Up Australia Day is held across Australia on Sunday 7th March 2010. Clean Up Australia's 2010 campaign is well underway and we are hoping to make it the biggest community event to date as we celebrate our 20th Anniversary! Every year, from Perth to Penrith, hundreds of thousands of Australians get stuck in and Clean Up their local environment by collecting and removing rubbish on Clean Up Australia Day.
2010 marks the 20th Anniversary of Clean Up Australia Day and we hope to encourage and inspire thousands of Australians to take to their local park, beach, bushland and streets and really help make a difference. Clean Up Australia Day remains Australia's largest community event. It is fun, easy and anyone can get involved.
Clean Up Australia has made a huge difference over the last 20 years. Just last year, we picked up over 2 million pieces of rubbish. That's pretty amazing and we want to say ‘thank you'. What's even more amazing is if each and every Australian picks up JUST 1 piece of rubbish, we'll pick up 10 times more than last year. That's around 20 million pieces. So for our 20th Anniversary, we're asking people to help make this the best Clean Up Australia Day ever - by picking up JUST 1 piece of rubbish.
