Thank you to our all volunteers who have helped out at the clean-ups and in other ways this summer. We have continued with our weekly clean ups meeting every Wednesday at 6pm in the Bullring. We have also had several Saturday clean-ups around Wexford town where there has been some fantastic work done by our volunteers from litter picking, sweeping, weeding, and more, all helping keep Wexford clean, tidy and beautiful. Special thanks to Michael Hayes for the fantastic hospitality he has showed us all, in O Brien’s on the main street after the Saturday clean-ups it is much appreciated.
The Tidy Towns competition judging has been going on during the summer months around Ireland. Thanks to all those who also make a special effort to keep our town clean by ensuring the areas near their own homes and businesses are kept clean and clear of rubbish. We love to hear from people about the clean ups they undertake to do themselves and if any individuals or groups would like to organise a clean up get in touch with us here at Wexford Tidy Towns to see how we can help.
Some key problems we keep seeing is the dog fouling around the town especially on the Quay. Remember to pick up after your dog and use the bins provided. Also a huge portion of the litter we pick up continues to be cigarette butts discarded on the ground please put them in bins or containers provided. We can also provide special pouches for individuals to store them in to be disposed of later. Please help us by disposing of all your waste correctly and responsibly.
If you would be interested in getting involved follow us on Twitter, get in touch on Facebook or send us a email info@wexfordtidytowns.com We are always looking for more people to join us here at Wexford Tidy Towns, everyone is welcome. Just come along to our regular Wednesday evening clean-ups 6pm in the Bullring or join us for our next Saturday clean up, which is on the 23rd August meeting at Ferrybank 10am. We would love to see some new faces there, litter pickers, gloves, bags etc. are provided.
