Park Boulevard Centre promotes Durban beach clean-up for National Environment month!
With June marking National Environment Month 2017, Park Boulevard Centre is hosting a beach clean-up on Saturday, June 24th in association with #CleanBlueLagoon, a group dedicated to cleaning up and maintaining not only the Blue Lagoon and Beachgrove Mangrove areas, but all areas of Durban that need improving.
All schools, community groups, individuals and companies are welcomed to get involved in the removal of litter from Blue Lagoon beach, by volunteering their services from 09h30 till 11h30.
“We chose Blue Lagoon beach as this is the closest beach to the centre. We drive past here on a daily basis and truly believe that we need to continue the efforts of removing unwanted waste and debris that litter the beach and make their way into the ocean which is detrimental to our marine life and ultimately detrimental to us. We also want the youth to get involved this Youth Month in order to realise that it is not only their responsibility, but also their power to become agents for change in support of marine life protection,” commented Elisabeth Pretorius (Centre Manager under the Broll Property Group)
If you would like to be a volunteer, please meet at the Ezemvelo (KZN Wildlife) Beachwood Mangroves Education Centre by 09h15wearing closed shoes, a hat and with own refreshments. (Maps are posted on the #CleanBlueLagoon Facebook group).
For more information, volunteers can contact Dale the Whale (Organiser) on 082 903 0500, but are encouraged to join the #CleanBlueLagoon Group on Facebook to keep updated.
