Spring Clean

National Spring Clean is Ireland’s most popular, well recognised and successful anti-litter initiative. Now in its 11th year, the campaign encourages every sector of society to actively participate and take responsibility for litter, by actually conducting clean-ups in their own local environment. National Spring Clean traditionally takes place throughout the month of April.

A Clean Town means jobs so help develop the town by talking to your residents association or just getting a few neighbours together and making Athy a great looking place this year.
