Wicklow Volunteers Don't Waste Any Time On World Clean-up Day

World Clean-up Day is a global movement to tackle waste and environmental pollution.

More than 100kg of rubbish was collected from Dr Ryan Park in Greystones on World Clean-up Day.

Volunteers from Greystones, Delgany and Charlesland gathered on Saturday September 20th to improve the local environment.

The event, organised by Cllr Stephen Stokes was part of the global clean-up initiative uniting millions worldwide. It also has the support of Greystones Tidy Towns and the Municipal District Office.

Cllr Stokes praised the community effort, saying:

“It’s inspiring to see people of all ages working to protect the environment. This shows how much locals care about their surroundings.”

The next park clean-up is planned for spring 2026 during National Spring Clean. Why not join in!
