Global Initiative, Community Involvement: Lippstadt initiates "City Cleanup" for World Cleanup Day 2025

In an effort to promote a cleaner and healthier environment, the city of Lippstadt is inviting everyone to participate in the World Cleanup Day 2025. This annual citizen movement for environmental pollution removal became an official UN action day in 2024, and Lippstadt is proud to be an active supporter of this initiative.

Kerstin Werner from the Youth and Family Department has highlighted the concern about the presence of plastic in drinking water, food, and children's bodies. She calls for immediate action, and the World Cleanup Day provides an excellent opportunity for the community to take part in this effort.

The World Cleanup Day will take place on September 19th or 20th, 2025. Various locations in Lippstadt will be available for waste collection actions, such as kindergartens, schools, youth centers, bowling clubs, or companies. The city will provide trash bags free of charge for the event, and if needed, trash grabbers can be borrowed.

Volunteer groups in Lippstadt have carried out waste collection actions in previous years, such as the youth of the residents' center in JuchaczstraรŸe. This year, every group or friends in Lippstadt are invited to organize their own waste collection action in their own environment. Registration for the World Cleanup Day can be done at ideenstadt@unsure website.

Registration is essential for later evaluation of recyclable material and participation in the raffle. All groups that register for the World Cleanup Day will participate in a raffle with attractive prizes.

After the World Cleanup Day, the city invites all interested parties to a special film screening of "The Holy Shit" on September 21st, 2025, at Cinema+Studio Lippstadt. Heike Paesel from the City Planning and Environmental Protection Department emphasizes the importance of celebrating success after the World Cleanup Day.
