Call for volunteers to give Kerry a spring clean

Volunteers all around Co Kerry will take part in a major clean-up and litter-picking operation tomorrow.

Local residents, schools and community groups are being asked to take part with a view to making Kerry the cleanest county in Ireland, according to Kerry County Council environment awareness officer Michael Ó Coileáin.

The hope is to build on the success of Killarney, outright winner in the 2011 Tidy Towns competition.
