Sergeant Jim Molloy on the National Spring Clean Campaign

Sergeant Jim Molloy would like to remind viewers that Spring Clean month kicked off on Tuesday 24 March 2009. Spring Clean is an initiative organised by An Taisce. However, last year Community Gardaí in Tallaght joined forces with An Taisce and the local community.

Together they targeted particular hotspots in the Tallaght area and as a result of the joint initiative there was a reduction in the incidents of Public order, Anti social behaviour, underage drinking and graffiti in these areas.

Following on from that success An Garda Síochána has again joined forces with An Taisce and has piloted the Spring Clean initiative in four areas which include Tallaght and Store Street in Dublin, Athlone in Co. Westmeath, and Ennis in Co. Clare.

So if you live in those particulars areas get involved and help make your community a safer, cleaner area with improved quality of life for all.
