An invitation to keep Pinetown beautiful

The Keep Pinetown Beautiful Association is encouraging the community to lend their helping hands in keeping their town beautiful.

THE Keep Pinetown Beautiful Association (KPBA) is calling on residents to join them in their next clean-up, taking place tomorrow, Saturday, 16 July, starting at the Sandy Centre at 08:30. 

The KPBA is a newly formed non-profit organisation with the mission of making Pinetown a safe, beautiful and prosperous neighbourhood. 

The association had its last clean-up in May which was a success, with over 70 people participating, and the participants filling over 100 refuse bags.

Connie Rogers of the Association said the next clean-up will include Joseph Gumede Road near Pinetown Girls’ High School, and Stappleton Road.

Rogers encouraged the community in Pinetown to join them in restoring their neighbourhood. “We all live together; it is important for us to preserve the quality of our place – how it looks and feels. While we cannot force people to help us, the more hands we have, the better,” she said.
