Community impact doesn't happen in isolation. It takes coordination among partners, suppliers, and the wider community, all pulling in the same direction.
Our ongoing collaboration with SPL Linen and Safe Sleep Mackay
brings those pieces together, combining supply chain capability, repurposed resources and local knowledge to support people experiencing homelessness in the Mackay region.
What began with repurposing surplus linen and blankets has grown into something broader. Today, that includes providing essential bedding for Safe Sleep's converted bus shelters and ongoing laundry support to keep the sleeping pods operational for those who need them most.
A recent example of this partnership in action was Safe Sleep Mackay's "Bosses on Buses" fundraiser, where local leaders spent a night on concrete or in a narrow pod to raise awareness and funds for homelessness in the region, raising more than AU$21,000. It's one of many initiatives that show what's possible when communities, industry and partners align behind a shared purpose.
This is just the beginning, and we're committed to continuing this work with like-minded partners and creating lasting impact in the community.
