Kenmore locals are being urged to step up and volunteer for Clean Up Australia Day 2025, helping to remove litter and protect the local environment. Volunteers are needed in key areas, including Cubberla Creek and the space behind Kenmore Tavern Shopping Centre, where rubbish often accumulates.
For 34 years, Clean Up Australia has inspired communities across the country to take action against waste. More than 22 million Australians have contributed a combined 38.5 million hours to keeping public spaces clean and protecting local ecosystems.
The 2025 campaign continues this mission, calling on businesses, schools, and community groups to participate.
Join a Clean-Up Event in Kenmore
Business Clean Up Day – Tuesday, 25 February 2025
Schools Clean Up Day – Friday, 28 February 2025
Community Clean Up Day – Sunday, 2 March 2025
Each event targets different groups, with businesses encouraged to engage staff, schools provided with curriculum-linked lesson plans, and local groups invited to restore parks, streets, and bushland.
Help Clean Up Cubberla Creek
City official Greg Adermann will join the Cubberla-Witton Catchments Network for their clean-up efforts on Community Clean Up Day. Volunteers are encouraged to help remove rubbish from Cubberla Creek and the area behind Kenmore Tavern Shopping Centre, where litter accumulation is a recurring issue.
Cleaning up the area behind Kenmore Tavern Shopping Centre is essential to prevent plastic, glass, and other debris from being washed into Cubberla Creek, which connects to Moreton Bay. Pollution from urban runoff can degrade water quality, harm aquatic ecosystems, and introduce microplastics into marine environments.
How to Get Involved
Volunteers can register a clean-up site or join an existing effort via www.cleanupaustraliaday.org.au.
By signing up, Kenmore residents can directly impact their local environment and contribute to a cleaner, healthier community.
