Noosa Council x The Sunshine Coast Council

BlockTexx joined forces with two Queensland councils to celebrate World Environment Week.  🌏🌿

Noosa Shire Council and the Sunshine Coast council created an Australian first; by collaborating to bring our Give a Sheet® for the planet event to all their residents in the region.

Our Give a Sheet® for the Planet events ran concurrently across two locations on Sunday 11th June. Reaching over 170,000 households. 

We returned to Noosa for a second year holding the event at Tewantin state school The residents got involved and filled their cars with Towels, sheets and pillowcases. It was a great response diverting the equivalent of 3,300 pillow cases diverted from landfill.

For the first time, Sunshine Coast residents stayed local with their own Give a Sheet® event held at chancellor state college.

The Give a Sheet® for the planet events brought the communities together across the region, everyone had seized the opportunity to clean out their  cupboards and robes. Several donations were a result of people downsizing and moving house. One family managing three car loads of donations!

A special mention for the communities in both states who rallied together to drive their own linen collections ahead of the events.
