The Bulldogs and the City of Canterbury Bankstown have teamed up to tackle illegal dumping and encourage the local community to book a bulky waste clean-up.
Canterbury-Bankstown Mayor Bilal El-Hayek said the message is simple – don’t dump your rubbish and book a free bulky waste clean-up.
“We mustn’t drop the ball when it comes to keeping our streets clean,” Mayor El-Hayek said.
“There are people who show little regard for the community and elect to take the easy option and leave their mess on our streets. I’m hoping the star power of the Bulldogs will help get our message across.”
Mayor El-Hayek, who is a proud Bulldogs supporter, thanked the team for helping spread the word and playing a leadership role in our community.
“Looking after our City is a team effort and this campaign is a fantastic partnership
between our Council and the Bulldogs.”
Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs CEO Aaron Warburton agreed that tackling
community issues together was an important goal for the team.
“We’re in a position to be role models for the community who we show up for and play for every week,” Warburton said.
“One of the pillars of our team is using rugby league to spread awareness and education around issues that matter to our community, and this clean-up campaign has been the perfect opportunity to do just that.”
Council’s campaign will be shared shared across social media and on the back of buses operating throughout the City of Canterbury Bankstown.
Residents who live in a house, townhouse or building with five or less units are
encouraged to book their two free bulky waste-clean ups per year.
Those who live in a building with more than six units should contact their strata
representative to book their next clean-up.
