ALMOST 100 groups from Limerick registered to carry out clean-ups throughout the county for the National Spring Clean.
Over 4,000 Limerick volunteers have participated in organised clean-ups.
Nationwide, volunteers collected an estimated 2,800 tonnes of litter and have provided a starting point for a large number of groups to organise regular clean-up events all year long.
