Bunbury branch grand opening to help raise funds for Beyondblue
Truckline is planning to unveil its new Bunbury branch with a charity event for Beyondblue.
The new Western Australia-based facility replaces the 20-year-old existing branch and features an interactive showroom, better parking facilities, a large warehouse, and a modernised layout.
The grand opening event will raise funds for Beyondblue, with a voluntary gold coin donation, barbeque, and a charity auction of truck parts and accessories.
All the money raised will be donated to Beyondblue and Truckline will match the proceeds dollar for dollar.
Beyondblue GM workplace partnerships and engagement Patrice O’Brien iwelcomes the Truckline support.
“We are extremely grateful for Truckline’s interest in fundraising for Beyondblue,” O’Brien says.
“Through their support, Truckline is helping Beyondblue continue to do everything they can to create mentally heathy environments and improve the lives of individuals, families and communities affected by anxiety, depression and suicide in Australia.
Truckline Bunbury branch sales manager Bradley Wood highlights the importance of mental health awareness in the transport industry and Truckline’s support for Beyondblue.
“Truckline and our suppliers are proud to support Beyondblue via our grand opening event,” Wood says.
“Mental health issues touch so many across society, and the trucking industry is particularly susceptible due to long periods away from family, time pressures and exposure to road accidents.
“Beyondblue is a fantastic organisation who do great work, and it’s an extremely worthy cause for Truckline.
“We hope to see lots of our local community members and fellow businesses at the event and look forward to showing off our new branch and raising funds for Beyondblue at the same time.”
The grand opening will be held on Thursday, November 30 at 65 Halifax Drive, Davenport, Bunbury.
