IN a bid to get Cape beaches cleaned up, Nedbank is offering 10000 volunteers free tickets to the Nedbank Cup finals. The bank announced 10 beaches across the Cape where people could simply pitch up and help clean to get tickets to the Nedbank Cup football finals, which will be held on May 19.

The clean-up campaign has already been to four beaches. The next clean-up will be at Strand, at the Lifesaving Club this Saturday at 9am.

At 1pm, the clean-up will move to Liesbeek Park River. Volunteers will gather at the Wild Fig Restaurant parking lot.

On Sunday, another clean-up will be at Hout Bay Mariner Wharf, at 10am, and will move to Lions Head at 2pm, for a community clean-up. The tickets will be handed out to the first 10 000 volunteers, along with a goodie bag and T-shirt.

The head of Nedbank Group Sponsorshi­p and Cause Marketing, Tobie Badenhorst, said the campaign was in partnershi­p with the City of Cape Town.

He said it was about bringing together all the people of Cape Town to create a lasting Green Legacy, and to promote a culture of cleanlines­s.

”Nedbank prides itself on its reputation as money experts who do good, and the #cleanup4th­ecup campaign demonstrat­es what we are all about: bringing communitie­s together to improve people’s lives and environmen­ts, “said Badenhorst. The Mayco member for Facilities and Assets, Stuart Diamond, urged residents to seize this opportunit­y to win a free ticket.

“The Nedbank Cup is the FA Cup of South African football, and an opportunit­y not to be missed by any die-hard soccer fan.

“So please look out for the details of the clean-ups, do your bit for the environmen­t and you could be the lucky winner of a ticket to secure your seat at the finals,” said Diamond.
