Liverpool
joins world-wide cleanup
on
13 May
The
recently established JCI Liverpool (Junior Chamber International) is
taking part in the global “Let’s Do It! World” project, which
will take place on 13th May 2012. It
involves volunteers coming together to clean up illegal garbage in
local areas for the benefit of the community. The project has been
organised in many countries, particularly in Estonia,
where it started in 2008. More than 2m people around the world
have already started cleaning up their countries as part of the
project (see www.letsdoitworld.org
for further details).
Volunteers
in Liverpool will be taking part in this project for the first time.
The cleanup will be on 13
May 2012 from 1pm to 2pm.
The volunteers will meet at the park at Mercury Court, Liverpool, and
clean up several areas close to the city centre. The cleanup will
last for around an hour, after which the volunteers will meet for
coffee & tea.
Kai
Graf von
Pahlen, solicitor at Hill Dickinson and head of JCI Liverpool, said
that the cleanup will be attended by people in Liverpool who are keen
to make a positive difference to the community they live in. Anybody
can take part.
JCI
Liverpool is working with the Commercial District BID, the body
responsible for delivering the development and improvements in the
commercial district of Liverpool and many local businesses are
keen to support the project, including Hill Dickinson and the
Liverpool Chamber of Commerce.
JCI
is a global network of young professionals that offers its members
opportunities in (local, national and international) networking,
training and volunteer work (see www.jciuk.org.uk
for further details).
