Wetlands Litter Collection

  • Edgars Creek Wetlands Leamington Street Reservoir, VIC, 3073 Australia (map)

The waterway needs your help!

After the last few weeks of rain it has left the wetlands covered in litter.

Before the litter has a chance to enter the waterway and hurts our wildlife lets roll up our sleeves and get rid of it.

Sunday 14th January @ 3.00pm

We will be meeting in the wetlands at the Leamington Street entrance, pin drop in the link below;

Bring your gumboots if you have them!

If you do wish to participate in the litter collection, please sure that you;

1. Wear suitable sturdy, closed toed shoes, long sleeves and long pants

2. Are sun smart with a hat, protective clothing and sunscreen

3. Register your details via the QR code when you arrive (name, email address and phone number etc.) for insurance purposes, before picking up litter

4. Do not enter the water. The water can hold hidden dangers. Instead take a photo of any litter in the water and let one of the FoEL team know.

5. Do not enter tall grass. Tall grass can hold hidden dangers such as holes and snakes. You may also risk stepping, crushing and possibly killing smaller reptiles and amphibians who may call the tall grass home

There is no expectation to stay for any length of time, every bit helps!

All are welcome to join. We look forward to seeing you
