Cleaning up graffiti

Participants who attend the Umina Beach Choice Awareness Project have been spending time cleaning up graffiti.

The participants were disappointed to find that vandals had targeted their mural at Rogers Park, Woy Woy, according to project manager Ms Christine Burge.

Vandals have spray painted over parts of the mural, tagging the side of the council-owned public toilets.

The project has participants cleaning up graffiti by painting murals or cleaning off graffiti using other means.

The project is facilitated by Choice Australia Management on behalf of Community Success.

"We would be happy to hear from residents or businesses that need assistance to clean-up graffiti," said Ms Burge.

Choice Australia Management oversees and implements youth and community initiatives, which create positive opportunities for children, young and older people and the broader community.

"We are a not-for-profit organization which aims to significantly increase the quality of life for people, by empowering them to believe they can achieve, through careful consideration of their choices, actions and decisions," Ms Burge said.

A new component of this Choice Australia Management project is to assist non-profit organisations on the Peninsula
