This week is National Recycling Week: a reminder that small everyday actions can create big change. And this year, we’re celebrating a simple way you can care for both the planet and the mental health of Tasmanians.

Through the Tasmania’s Recycle Rewards scheme, every bottle, can, and eligible drink container you return can become more than recycling. It can become support for suicide prevention and mental health education across our state.

All you have to do is choose SPEAK UP! Stay ChatTY as your charity of choice when you deposit your containers, and your 10c refunds will be donated directly to us. Those cents add up to conversations, programs, school talks, workplace training, and life-changing awareness.

Because while recycling keeps waste out of landfill, your donation helps keep people connected, supported, and reminded that they’re not alone.

How it works:

  1. Collect eligible 10c containers

  2. Head to a Recycle Rewards refund point

  3. Select SPEAK UP! Stay ChatTY as your charity

  4. Feel good knowing you’re helping twice – the planet, and the people in it
