Fun at Hyde Park Festival

We were proud to be part of this year’s Hyde Park Festival,

supported by the incredible efforts of our volunteers who contributed a total of 95 volunteer hours across the event.

Our involvement over the past two years has been made possible through our strong partnership with the Rotary Club of North Perth. The club runs six major food drives each year in support of Foodbank WA, and their ongoing commitment continues to create valuable opportunities to connect with the community while strengthening local food relief efforts.

Throughout the festival, volunteers shared information about Foodbank WA’s work and collected fresh produce from festival-goers. We also made sure to keep the kiddies smiling with temporary tattoo transfers and our Ghrelin Play-Doh kits. Ghrelin is a hormone most commonly referred to as the ‘hunger hormone’ and formed part of one of our awareness campaigns where we encouraged individuals to create a figurine that represented what a hunger Ghrelin looked like to them.

At the end of the season, the grapes collected were distributed to ensure nothing went to waste and that fresh, nutritious food reached people who need it most.

The Hyde Park Festival is a great example of the power of community collaboration, bringing together volunteers, partners and local supporters to make a real and lasting difference.
