Take 3 For The Sea Beach Clean Up 2023

In only one hour, our 31-person strong GH Commercial team along with Take 3 for the Sea representatives collected 1,657 litter items weighing 7kg altogether. Working to remove this litter from our environment helps to protect our animals, ecosystems, and oceans.

"On Friday afternoon, the team from Godfrey Hirst removed an incredible 1,657 pieces of rubbish from Eastern Beach in Geelong. Eastern Beach is a popular waterfront area with high traffic, especially on a beautiful sunny afternoon, like we had! The team were in good spirits as they set out to clean up the beach, and showed great dedication to the task, collecting waste from areas that clearly hadn't been cleaned in a while. They also did a great job of accurately recording their findings, providing detailed data collection sheets to help identify waste sources. The most abundant item found was cigarette butts, with one group finding a whopping 186 butts and a total of 562 were removed from the beach. Amazing work!" - Abbey Jacob, Take 3 for the Sea Educator
