It took place in 200 locations across the county.

Over 3,000 Kildare volunteers joined the National Spring Clean 2021 in almost 200 locations across the county.
 
The National Spring Clean is Ireland’s official anti-litter campaign.

This year, it ran from  April to the end of August, making it the longest in the initiative's 21 year history

National Spring Clean Manager, Emlyn Cullen said: "This year we had the longest and biggest National Spring Clean campaign ever and we want to thank all the groups and individuals around Ireland who joined us. While waiting for Spring Clean 2022, there are several ways in which communities and individuals around Ireland can keep getting involved and do their bit for our environment. For example, we encourage people to do a #2minutestreetclean every time they are out and about. Moreover, we are joining An Taisce’s Clean Coasts Programme for the Big Beach Clean and we are inviting volunteers to register and tackle marine litter at its source."
