Big Donegal Clean-Up took place his week at The
Community Park in Convoy. Cathaoirleach of Donegal
County Council, Cllr. Jack Murray said “I am delighted
to launch the Big Donegal Clean-Up campaign for 2022 and
it’s great to see the campaign back again. This year
hundreds of volunteers from right across the county will
once again take to the highways and byways to gather
litter and get the county looking clean and green for
all to enjoy.” |

As part of this year’s
campaign The Donegal Volunteer Centre have come on board
and they will publicise details of planned clean-ups on
the website
www.volunteerdonegal.ie . This is a great addition
to help community groups promote their campaigns and
gain some additional volunteers.
John Curran from Donegal Volunteer Centre stated that
“Community Clean-ups are a great example of volunteers
giving time for the greater good. They help communities
shine and be at their best. We in the volunteer centre
are delighted to support the groups across Donegal and
to introduce new volunteers to the team”.
This campaign helps individuals, groups, businesses and
organisations in arranging their own clean-ups. The
Council provides bags, gloves and litter pickers while
also taking care of the collection of rubbish once it
has been bagged.
