Cogho, Mandy and the team at Triple MMM are aiming to cover the Queen Elizabeth Oval (QEO) in Bendigo with blankets on Friday 29tMay. These blankets will then be donated to local charity groups to assist people experiencing homelessness in our region.

What can I donate?

• New blankets (woollen, polyester, cotton etc)
• Used blankets in good condition
• Doonas
• Coverlets

Where can I donate?

There will be a collection box at the Naunton Family Building Reception until Thursday 18th May. We will then deliver all of the collected blankets to the QEO on the morning of the Blanket Bendigo event.
