Following the success of their previous CEO Clean-Ups, Take 3 for the Sea is returning to Manly Cove Beach, Sydney, for their 2022 CEO Clean-Up.
Take 3 for the Sea invites CEOs, directors, business owners and other industry leaders who would like to demonstrate leadership on environmental sustainability to participate in the event. The Clean-Ups are the first of their kind, providing business leaders with the opportunity to lead by example and make a positive change in their community by cleaning up the local environment, fundraising to support clean oceans and raising awareness of the
plastic pollution problem.
The event, to be held on Friday 9 September 2022, will be attended by NSW Minister for Environment and Heritage, Mr James Griffin, CEO of the Environmental Protection Agency, Mr Tony Chappel, and a representative of Member for Warringah, Ms Zali Steggall OAM.
Since the inaugural CEO Clean-Up in 2019, 170 CEOs and business leaders have collectively removed more than 56,000 pieces of rubbish from the environment, and raised almost $75,000 for Take 3.
“Funds raised at our CEO Clean-Ups help Take 3 to deliver vital education programs in schools, surf clubs and communities around Australia and the globe.” said Jacquie Riddell, CEO of Take 3. “We are focused on achieving the challenging goal of educating one million school children and removing 50 million pieces of litter by 2025, and the 2022 CEO Clean-Up will move us closer to achieving that goal.”
Take 3’s CEO Clean-Ups do more than just remove litter and raise money. They provide a perfect opportunity for the participating business owners to review how their companies use plastic and start taking steps to ‘turn off the tap’ of plastic production.

About Take 3 for the Sea
Take 3 believes in simple actions to address complex problems. How can we stop plastic pollution from killing wildlife and suffocating our planet?
In 2009, two friends set about answering this question. Marine ecologist Roberta Dixon-Valk and youth educator Amanda Marechal developed Take 3 – an idea where a simple action could produce profound consequences. Joining forces with environmentalist Tim Silverwood, the trio publicly launched Take 3 as an organisation in 2010. Now, twelve years later, Take 3 has developed and delivered education programs to schools, universities, surf life saving
clubs, tourism, corporates and communities across Australia, directly educating 700,000+ students and 450,000+ community members.
The message is simple, Take 3 pieces of rubbish with you when you leave the beach, waterway or…anywhere, and you have made a difference.
