Madhachi, the director of the clean-up, drove around the Hillcrest, Waterfall, Kloof and Pinetown area before clean-up day to identify problematic areas.
Community members, learners, volunteers, including John Hollow, Alison Longford-Hollow, Kundai Chibarabada and Norman Miller from Hillcrest High School, also helped make the clean-up a success.
