Our mission is to work with communities to clean up, fix up and conserve our environment.
Our approach to achieving this mission has three elements:
• Support for the community to remove rubbish on Clean Up Days
• Education on the harmful impacts of irresponsible disposal
• Support for litter reduction campaigns e.g. Ban the Bag, Container Deposit Scheme
CUA maintains a web portal that facilitates site registration and allows over half a million volunteers to find sites that are already registered. Clean Up kits are supplied to over 6000 community, school, youth and business Clean Up sites each year and CUA works with councils to facilitate the disposal of the rubbish that is collected.
Over the past 27 years, Australians have devoted more than 32 million hours at over 171,000 locations and collected more than 334 thousand tonnes of rubbish.
