About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

Please join us to live your best sustainable life and spend less doing it, with the help of sustainability expert and founder of Banish, Lottie Dalziel.

Lottie will be presenting her new book 365+ Ways to Save the Planet and Your Money at the Same Time. It's okay to start small – none of us have to be perfect – and Lottie offers both the encouragement and the knowledge we all need to do a few little things to make a big difference.

Attendees on the night have a chance to win a signed copy. There will be an onsite bookseller for the purchase of the book and Lottie will be available for signing and questions.

NOTE: Guests are invited to bring along any ‘hard’ to recycle items to toss into the BRAD mega box, instead of paying $15 for an envelope or travelling to the city. The usual drop-off point is at Central Station. If you attend Lottie’s event she will bring her BRAD mega box and take your trash away and turn it into treasure, 2kg bag maximum weight per person.

Approx 25,000 households around Australia are collecting all their hard recycle items to recycle through the BRAD program. Follow the link to see the full list of items you can bring along here – get collecting and do something good for the planet.
