Australian Tidy Town Awards


The Australian Tidy Town Awards were launched in 1968 in Western Australia and are an initiative of Keep Australia Beautiful. These awards encourage, motivate and celebrate the achievements of rural and regional communities across Australia. Originally focused on litter reduction and civic pride, they now address the environmental, social and economic sustainability of local rural communities.
