20.01.2022 This amazing initiative from XTM Performance bought us just over 200 coats to distribute to Hobart’s community. There are many people all over Australia acting in small and large ways to try and help the housing situation. Please donate your warm jackets to Anaconda at Cambridge Park to join in...

20.01.2022 We have just received a bumper amount of warm jackets and coats to distribute. Can you help? We really need Hobart based people who would be willing to take 5-10 jackets to either hang onto coats using the Free on a Tree method, or distribute directly into their community! Please comment below or message me if you are available to collect some coats from Sandy Bay in the next 2-3 days. Thankyou so much to XTM Performance with their amazing national initiative Heat the Homeless!

18.01.2022 Front and centre focus on homelessness in Hobart with national launch in Mathers Lane #gohobart

17.01.2022 Some visitors from South Australia recently shot some lovely photos of our coats to share with you!

17.01.2022 Nice work, Rokeby Primary School! Thanks to all the schools around Tassie getting involved.

17.01.2022 Thankyou, Libraries Tasmania, a fantastic central point to get involved in either donating or taking coats to help hang around the city.

16.01.2022 Would any kind businesses out there be able to donate any 3kg Express Post bags to us? There's an idea hatching to get beanies out to regional schools around Tasmania... Please inbox me to arrange drop off/collection.

13.01.2022 A bumper amount of coats donated at our ABC centre donation point! Thankyou especially for the level of quality warm jackets, including a nearly new Superdry waterproof coat! Thanks ABC Hobart...

13.01.2022 Keep an eye out for these amazing game changers 300 Blankets, we were thrilled to team up with them recently and help distribute brand new woolen blankets to Hobart people in need. Thankyou guys!

13.01.2022 Thanks to all those involved! Special thanks to XTM Performance...

12.01.2022 Thankyou to all involved in helping sort garments, hang on trees, post and deliver to shelters and schools and bring this idea into your local community. Our photo shows this year's four major highlights. We will still be working in the background on Free on a Tree projects, but will see you in Winter 2020!

08.01.2022 We have decided to not hang these brand new beanies onto trees but they will be delivered to crisis shelters who help young people, children, women and older men. We also have plans to deliver packs directly to school offices for cold kids. They are beautiful warm ski quality beanies, from the very generous folk at XTM Performance. They buck the trend of large companies who don’t think of the needy!

08.01.2022 Two massive boxes of brand new Creswick Woollen Mills blankets sent to Free on a Tree, thanks to Victorian based champs 300 Blankets! We have already directly handed four blankets out to very appreciative and lovely men sleeping rough on Hobart’s streets. A huge thanks to 300 Blankets and their partners Creswick Woollen...

06.01.2022 Tiny people from Lauderdale’s Discovery Early Learning Centre went out this week on an excursion to hang coats, beanies, scarves and leave canned goods, collected by centre families. What a beautiful thing to teach a very young child - these must be the youngest group of Free on a Tree volunteers yet! Shared with permission... enjoy

06.01.2022 Current donation points for coats: - ABC Centre (near the pool) - BYA Architects, cnr King St and Sandy Bay Rd - Anaconda, Cambridge Centre (in the Heat the Homeless box) - State Library, Murray Street... - David OByrne MP’s office, Rosny Mall - Scott Bacon MP’s office, Glenorchy Or the most effective and fun ways is to hang the coat yourself - this way we achieve a wide variety of places reached! Just pick good weather and go back to check the coat a day or so later... See more
