Public Notice - Lucinda Coastal Clean Up 19 July 2025

Published on 07 July 2025

In response to local feedback, Hinchinbrook Shire Council, in partnership with the Lucinda Progress Association, Herbert River Catchment and Landcare Group, Girringun Aboriginal Corporation, and Ingham Rod and Reel Club, is hosting a Lucinda Coastal Clean Up Day on Saturday 19 July 2025.
