Want to host your own Big Butt Hunt?
If your council, school, business or community organisation would like to host your own Big Butt Hunt, please reach out via the link below and someone will be in touch.
We can support with creation of assets, project management and facilitating the provision of required equipment through Clean Up Australia.
We acknowledge that our work takes place on the traditional lands of Indigenous Peoples around the world. We honour them as the original and continuing stewards who have cared for these beautiful lands and waters since time immemorial, and we recognise their profound and enduring connection to culture and community. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging, and to all Indigenous Peoples. As an organisation, we are committed to learning from and supporting Indigenous communities in our work.
