Clean Up Australia Day
Paul EDBROOKE (Frankston) (14:49): I ended the week on Sunday with Clean Up Australia Day, and I want to do a massive shout-out to everyone who turned up and got hundreds of kilograms of litter from our beaches and streets. A massive shout-out to Jacqui from Seaford Beach Patrol and Simon from Carrum Beach Patrol for everything they do in our community. They are out there every weekend organising, making sure people know when the events are, signing people up for them and doing their bit to keep plastics from our beach and to ensure that we recycle as well. Their message is very clear, and I think it is well known, but they do a great job, and Clean Up Australia Day was so successful this year because of them.
