Today’s Clean Up Australia Day event was a big success! Thank you everyone who volunteered their time.

Despite initial gloomy weather, Stringybark Creek Residents Association was joined by 77 people aged 4 to 85, including our fantastic local scouts and girl guides. Good to see our mayor Councillor Merri Southwood, East Ward - Lane Cove Council and west ward councillors Councillor Rochelle Flood Councillor Katie Little - Lane Cove getting involved. We ❤️ the community spirit!!

25 bags of rubbish and 4 bags of recycling were collected, along with a tyre, a bin and even a gazebo! In good news though, we saw a HUGE reduction in plastic bags and takeaway coffee cups from previous years.
