#SeaToSource - Community Clean up at Kissing Point Park
Putney, 2112, NSW

#SeaToSource is an initiative powered by Conservation Volunteers Australia, supporting everyday people to take action on one of the world’s most solvable environmental issues – ocean litter.

We’re committed to reducing the amount of plastic litter entering our creeks, rivers and oceans and causing harm to the animals that call these places home. Plastic is around 60-95% of the litter in our waterways and oceans, and causes a wide range of issues in these environments.

We will be working along 8 major waterways around Australia to tackle ocean litter. In NSW, our focus is on the the Parramatta River and the Georges River and their surrounding catchments. 

As part of the day, you will be involved in a community clean up to reduce litter at Kissing Point Park. Working by the bustling banks of the Parramatta River, you will spend the day on the surrounding beaches and mangroves nearby, removing litter and improving the environment for the river's inhabitants. After the clean up, we will spend some time collecting data about the litter collected. We will do this so that we can learn more about the types of litter found on our river (and most importantly, how we can stop these items from entering our waterways to begin with!) 

So come along and help us to remove ocean litter from the sea, all the way back to the source!

NOTE: There is a strict limit of 10 volunteers for this project. All volunteers will be required to answer a COVID-19 questionnaire prior to participating. Please also bring along your own pair of gloves, a hat, lunch and a bottle of water.
