Murray River Clean Up Day

The stretch of riverbank below Victoria Park collects rubbish quietly through the year: bottles, fishing line, packaging and the occasional dumped load. None of it is dramatic on its own. Left alone, it ends up in the water and in wildlife.

What to expect

We meet at the boat ramp, split into small groups and work along marked sections of the bank. Most people stay for the full three hours, but come for whatever time you have. We finish with a cuppa and a look at what came out.

What to bring

Closed shoes, a hat, sun protection and a water bottle. We provide gloves, bags, grabbers and hi-vis vests. Children are welcome with an adult, and there is easy, flat ground for anyone who would rather work near the car park.

No registration needed. If you are bringing a group of more than five, send us a note beforehand so we have enough gear on hand.
