Macrossan Street Clean-up

In 2018 we found 2,200 cigarette butts in gardens in Macrossan Street.
Cigarette filters are plastic, take years to break up, are deadly to birds, fish and marine animals, and are washed through drains to become marine debris in our ocean.
Community members and local businesses interested in our local environment and the GBR are invited to join us on
Wednesday 15th May
