Supporters of Sustainability Challenge

The Supporters of Sustainability (SOS) challenge is program previously implemented by Council enabling householders to reduce their impact on the environment by making a few small changes in their home and everyday life.

What we do as an individual, a family or as a community can be big or small, whatever it is, it will make a difference. What's important is that we do something.

The following are eight ways we can try to reduce our impact on the environment. By joining the challenge, you are making a conscious effort to make some of these changes around your home and in your everyday life and with that, together as a community we can work towards a better future.
