Keep the Valley litter-free

Sunday 4 March is Clean Up Australia day and Council is encouraging you to join in and help make the Lockyer Valley its glowing best.

With the Queen's Baton Relay (QBR) making its way to the region at the end of March, Lockyer Valley Mayor Tanya Milligan said the timing was spot-on.

The QBR is an historic event so to have Australia's largest clean up just weeks beforehand is the ideal opportunity to ensure the Lockyer Valley is spotless and to keep it that way!

If you can spare some time, please register and support this worthy community event.

Council is committed to keeping the Lockyer Valley clean and green and this is an activity where everyone can play an important part.

A total of six sites are currently registered, but the more the better, Mayor Milligan said.

Businesses across the country will take part in Clean Up Australia on Tuesday 27 February, schools will have their turn on Friday 2 March while youth can choose between Friday 2 and Sunday 4 March.
