Sports clean-up action with results
With the help of enthusiastic participants, brilliant weather and a sporting challenge, the goal of cleaner water has come another step closer. During the clean-up campaign on Saturday 21 September, a total of 132.9 kg of litter was removed from the waters and canals in Gorinchem. Participants took to the water on a SUP board, armed with grabs and rubbish bags to remove cans, plastic bags and other litter. Thanks to good guidance from an experienced instructor, everyone went out on the water with confidence.
Along the side, many people were watching, complimenting the participants. Some even expressed their desire to participate next year too! The event not only ensured a cleaner environment, but also brought people together for a common cause.
Together for cleaner water
Thanks to the efforts of all participants, we made an important contribution to cleaner water in Gorinchem. Not only did we make the city more beautiful, but we also made the water safer for everything that lives in it. Together, we have made a difference!
