Jason Ross volunteers his time to clean up Bathurst streets

Jason Ross has lived in Bathurst for eight years, and has spent much of that time travelling around high traffic areas in order to clean up the town.

"I just do it in my spare time as a volunteer," he said.

Mr Ross generally targets Mount Panorama, around the hospital, Bathurst Library and the surrounding areas.

At the moment, Mr Ross is attacking the paths along Durham and Esrom street, where the Edgell Jog is set to take place in September.

"I just clean where I think it needs to be done next," he said.

It's something that Mr Ross loves to do, as it provides him the opportunity to thank the Bathurst community.

"I just want to do something I feel could make a small difference," he said.

Mr Ross also enjoys the "exercise, walking, the fresh air, the sun and meeting new people."

"It's just the type of thing that Aussies do," he said.
