THE CLEAN COLLECTIVE  

Local hands, clean lands: Tackling litter one piece at a time. 

Imagine a North Shore where every street is pristine, our waterways are clear, and our community is proud of where we live. At Kaipātiki Project, we believe that small, daily actions create monumental change.  

The Clean Collective is a new movement designed to shift our collective habits. Behaviour science tells us..

  • Clean spaces reduce littering
  • People copy what they see others doing
  • Small visible actions build community pride
  • Habits stick when they're easy
  • Most litter isn't intentional - early pickup matters!

Whether you have 30 seconds a day or a few hours a month, there will be something for you. Click below to stay in the know with upcoming events and activities.
