Killiney Beach and Ballybrack Village clean-ups in 2023

We welcome all volunteers to help remove litter at every opportunity. In the current restrictions, we ask beach-goers to remove even small amounts each time you visit the beach or the village. A 2-minute clean-up by many of us can make a big difference. Even encourage the kids to do a mini bucket clean-up. We also encourage dog walkers to ‘make that scoop’! Together we can achieve a lot.
