MEDIA RELEASE - MICHELLE ROWLAND COLLECTING FOR THE NAPPY COLLECTIVE - 28 APRIL 2017

27 April 2017

Michelle Rowland is calling on families that have any leftover nappies to drop them into her office as part of the “Nappy Collective” initiative.

The Nappy Collective program runs Australia-wide with the aim to collect tens of thousands of leftover nappies that will then be sorted and distributed to women’s shelters, programs for homeless mothers and young mothers in need.

Through the support of parents across Australia, The Nappy Collective has collected over 1.75 million nappies which have been distributed to mothers in need.

The next Collective begins from Friday 5 May and will run through until Friday 19 May 2017. Residents are invited to drop in their leftover nappies to Michelle Rowland’s office at 230 Prospect Highway, Seven Hills between 9am-5pm.

“As a mum, I know there can often be nappies left over when children grow out of them”, Ms Rowland said.

“I encourage all residents to drop any left-over nappies to my office, which will go to local mothers who may be struggling and really need them,” Ms Rowland said.
