Lamu Safi Group is a community based organisation, made up of like minded individuals who want to see a cleaner Lamu, for the benefit of all. The Aims & Objectives of the Group are:
 
To raise public awareness regarding sanitation issues in Lamu, and to encourage all members of the community through educational initiatives to play a role in waste management to keep the town clean
 
To identify, plan, harness resources for, and implement projects aimed at improving waste management and conserving the environment in Lamu
 
We are working together with the community and local officials, through education programmes and implementing practical projects, to achieve a cleaner Lamu, for everyone's benefit.
