Blaauwberg Nature Reserve Beach Clean-ups

Blaauwberg Nature Reserve in partnership with the Friends of Blaauwberg Conservation Area (FoBCA) have restarted monthly clean-ups in February 2021. 39 volunteers assisted for the most recent week long clean-up. 53 bags of litter was removed for the week. The top 3 items counted (using The Beach Coop Dirty Dozen score sheet) were cigarette butts , bottle tops/lids and lollipop sticks. These clean-ups are conducted monthly as part of the Green Coast monitoring requirements for the Habitat theme. The public are encouraged to join in!
