Business Clean Up Day
Next event: Tuesday 2 March 2021
For the last 2 years Wainwright Facades employees have taken part in Clean Up Australia's Business Clean Up Day. We have been cleaning up the Remembrance Nature Park in Campbell, taking action to protect our local environment and help clean up before rubbish pollutes our precious parks, bushland, waterways and oceans and kills our wildlife.
Clean Up Australia inspires and empowers communities to clean up, fix up and conserve our environment. Australian businesses are in the perfect position to be role models for the rest of the community and be seen to take action and play their part in caring for the environment.
See some photos from the Wainwright Facades 2020 clean up day here and from the 2019 clean up day here.
