GALLERY: Carlow students carry out litter picks around town every morning during Rag Week

Every morning at 8am during Rag Week, all Student Union Officers and student volunteers head out to all the student residential areas and around town to pick up rubbish such as cans, bottles or general rubbish that may appear during the week.

The students said: "We do this because the student areas are mixed between Carlow residents and students. The residents do have to deal with a lot during the week so by us going out and helping, it can outweigh the hassle."
