Clean Up Australia Day

  • Edwardes Lake Griffiths Street Reservoir, VIC, 3073 Australia (map)

It's time for the annual event of Clean Up Australia Day!

Friends of Edwardes Lake will be joined by the Bushlands Management team for this litter collection and we're hoping to give the land and wetlands lots of love.

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

1. Bring your own gloves, bag, tongs/ grabber and fish nets

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

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

6. Register your details @https://www.cleanupaustraliaday.org.au

7. Do not enter the water. The water can hold hidden dangers. Instead take a photo of any litter in the water and send it to us via email, Facebook or Instagram

8. 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

9. Remember to take before and after photos of the areas you clean


We will be collecting litter for about 1.5 hour 10.00am to 11.30am then finishing by the litter sorting. There is no expectation to stay for any length of time, every bit helps!

We hope to see you there!
