Triple M launches Blanket Albany

Triple M Albany is launching a new community initiative, Blanket Albany.

From today, the local station is calling on the local community to provide new blankets to assist the homeless as the cooler winter months set in.

Triple M Albany Breakfast announcer Atlas Cook (main photo) says “I’m so glad that I can be a part of such an amazing cause in Albany. I hope that everyone can come together as a community and help.”

Following almost a month of blanket collections, Triple M Albany will host a live broadcast on Saturday 15 June at the Town Hall in Albany between 8am – 10am.

All the donated blankets will be displayed at the live broadcast before they are donated to local charities for distribution.

Triple M Southwest is also running an identical initiative called Blanket Bunbury which runs until 1 June.

Triple M Albany will be accepting blanket donations until 14 June.

Drop off points for the new blankets are:

• Triple M Albany, 171 Albany Street, Albany
• Harvey Norman, 5 Brooks Garden Blvd, Albany
• The Empty Bobbin, 319-331 Albany Hwy, Albany
