This activity is part of a broader global volunteer event to clean up the communities’ employees at Wiley live and work in.
September is World Cleanup Month in Wiley’s calendar, initiated by Wiley Green Group, which promotes environmentally sustainable practices in and outside of Wiley.
Sri Lanka’s coastal belt which stretches to around 1,700km is undoubtedly paramount to the country’s eco-system, also playing a crucial role in various industries such as tourism and fisheries.
The coastal environment here is diverse in nature, from sandy beaches to lagoons, mangroves and sand dunes, and keeping it clean is important to its well-being.
The volunteers indulged in a half-day beach cleanup activity and gave out refreshments and gifts to everyone involved in this cause.
