Byron Shire Council (Council) and Positive Change for Marine Life have organised a clean-up in Brunswick Heads for this year's Clean Up Australia Day on Sunday 3 March from 8am until 11.30am.
Sarah Child, Council's Resource Recovery Strategy and Engagement Officer, said that she was thrilled to partner with Positive Change for Marine Life again for this year's clean up.
"We'll be focusing our efforts on Brunswick Heads this year and encourage the community to sign up to join us. This can be done via the Clean Up Australia Day website, or you can just come on the day," Ms Child said.
"We will meet at Torakina Park on South Beach Road and will focus on picking up rubbish around the Torakina and Brunswick Heads beach area.
"We will provide everything you need, and you will even get a free coffee as a little thank you, just bring your own cup.
"If you want to do a clean up closer to home, you are encouraged to find an event near you," she said.
Around 1,200kg of litter was picked up from events across the Shire in 2023.
