It\u2019s crucial for improving our quality of life and preserving the natural environment. Clean public spaces not only make our surroundings more beautiful and pleasant but also ensure the health of all residents by reducing exposure to harmful substances and waste. Europe House Veles, the Youth Centre of Veles, and the students from \u201cVasil Glavinov\u201d Elementary School recently joined forces to clean the park. Enthusiastic and dedicated young people took part in the park clean-up, making a significant difference. Thanks to their efforts, the park has never looked better!
