Tāhunanui Beach Clean-Up 2025 this saturday
We’re doing it again!
In September each year, we hold a Beach Clean-Up event where local businesses and the community join in on our efforts to clean up Tāhunanui Beach, the inlet, the Back Beach and the surroundings as part of New Zealand’s most significant movement against litter during Clean Up Week.
Building on the success of last year’s event — where over 200 amazing volunteers helped collect around 500 kg of rubbish from Tāhunanui Beach and surrounds — we’re once again inviting the local community and businesses to join us for another big clean-up. This event is part of Clean Up Week 2025, New Zealand’s largest annual movement against litter.
Clean Up Week shines a light on how much litter ends up in our environment and brings communities together to tackle the issue head-on. Keep New Zealand Beautiful Clean Up Week also incorporates World Clean Up Day which happens on Saturday 20th September. The event is a global civic action, bringing together individuals, governments, and organizations to tackle waste issues. In 2025, World Cleanup Day will also highlight the issue of textile waste as part of the UN’s International Day of Zero Waste.
Together, we’ll be cleaning up:
– Tāhunanui Beach
– The inlet
– The Back Beach
– Surrounding areas
After the clean-up, stick around for a thank-you BBQ and the chance to win spot prizes as a token of our appreciation.
What to Bring & Wear:
– Sturdy shoes
– Long-sleeve shirts and trousers
– Sun hat
– Drinking water
We also encourage you to bring:
– Reusable/gardening gloves
– Jute/firewood/reusable bags or buckets for collecting rubbish
We’ll provide gloves and bags if needed, along with litter pick-up tools, sunblock, and bug spray.
