THE 'Big Donegal Clean
Up' gets underway this weekend with local community
events in Culdaff and Quigley's Point.
Residents and businesses around the county are being
asked to support the campaign by organising
clean-ups in their own communities.
On Saturday, April 8, clean-ups are planned for
Fahan, Moville and Greencastle and the following day
at Ballyliffin beach. A number of clean-ups are also
planned on Good Friday including in Carndonagh. |

Donegal County Council
litter warden Martin Roarty encouraging everyone to
get involved.
“The interest from individuals and communities is
brilliant. If everyone gave 30 minutes of their time
to take part in a clean-up in their own area, it is
amazing what can be achieved.
"Donegal is a large county and unfortunately the
council cannot keep the county litter-free on its
own. That’s why the work of these individuals and
groups is so important."
The council is supporting the community clean-ups by
providing bags, gloves and litter pickers while
arranging for the collection of the bagged rubbish.
