Banksia Eco Warriors Showerhead Exchange Program

Dear Eco Warrior bloggers,

We come to you with some refreshing news (pun inteded)!

Banksia Gardens Community Centre, in partnership with Yarra Valley Water, and with support from Hume City Council, is starting a Showerhead Exchange Program with an interesting twist.

Rather than waiting for people to come to us with their old showerheads, we have decided to trial the idea of going to people's houses to try and organise the exchange on the spot. We believe that this will allow us to reach many more households and to make a valuable personal connection that will be used for other programs under the Eco Warriors Project.

The process of getting the program organised has been extremely interesting, particularly given the disparity in the size of the organisations involved.

The new showerheads will be arriving to Banksia next Monday, we can't wait!

See you soon!
