Local schools, businesses, community groups and families are being urged to save the date and take part in annual national anti-litter initiative Clean Up Week, which this year runs from September 17 to 23.

Organiser Keep New Zealand Beautiful (KNZB) has free clean up kits for anyone registering an event and any rubbish collected can be disposed of for free at selected transfer stations.

KNZB chief executive Heather Saunderson says last year more than 30,000 volunteers collected around 300 tonnes of rubbish and she is urging more Kiwi groups, families and individuals to take up the challenge this year.
