10 years of spreading joy this season!

Celebrating a decade of giving with the Launceston Women's Shelter.

The festive season is a time for giving, and we're once again inviting our community to come together to make Christmas a little brighter for those who need it most.

For the 10th consecutive year, we're proud to be supporting the Launceston Women's Shelter through our annual Giving Tree, collecting gifts and donations for the women and children accessing their services.

Christmas can look different for everyone, and a small act of kindness can make a meaningful difference to a family doing it tough.

Who are we gifting?
