Students are being urged to tackle end-of-term rubbish by taking part in the clean-up initiative ‘Get it Out for Cardiff’.
The initiative, which is backed by Channel 4’s Kim and Aggie, stars of How Clean is Your House, is designed to minimise council clean-up costs.
Last year an extra 30 tonnes of rubbish was collected over two days thanks to the campaign, which has now been extended for an extra week.
Councillor Elgan Morgan, Executive member for Environment and Transport, said: “This is a great opportunity for students to make a real impact on their areas by ensuring they are left clean and tidy for their neighbours. We hope that this initiative will excel last year’s success.”
