Focusing on the area surrounding Suikerbekkie Street, the ward councillors and other volunteers cleaned up to the corner of Tin and Buiten roads.

Those who participated collected a large amount of litter and fallen tree branches.

Ward 134 councillor Wendy Alexander added, “This initiative needs to take place every month and we encourage all to take part. It’s amazing how dirty one area can become in the space of a month.
