The Town was proud to once again be part of this year’s Care for Hedland Sustainable Living Show Day… and what a fantastic day it was! 🙌

A highlight of the celebrations was welcoming the one and only Costa Georgiadis @costasworld to Hedland 🌱💚, who not only inspired crowds on show day but also spent time with our local schools and students, sharing his passion for sustainability and encouraging the next generation to care for our environment.

Events like this showcase the power of collaboration, bringing together local government, industry and our vibrant community - to celebrate sustainable living and a shared future for Hedland.

👏 Congratulations to everyone involved!
