Locals supporting Locals – Gippsprint Office Choice and The Wear House initiative at Latrobe Regional Hospital

Gippsprint Office Choice 2 mins read

When Christian Schill and Brian Scott from Gippsprint Office Choice in Traralgon learned about The Wear House, a heartwarming initiative supporting Latrobe Regional Hospital patients with brand-new clothing and essentials, they were inspired to get involved and make a difference.

Entirely funded by community donations and fundraising, The Wear House brings together locals, hospital staff, and volunteers to ensure patients in need have access to comfortable, dignified clothing. By providing an alternative to traditional hospital gowns, the initiative has become a beacon of compassion for those it serves.

During a recent visit, Christian and Brian met with Lisa Twigger, one of the key coordinators behind The Wear House. They presented their donation and toured the facility, gaining insight into the impact the initiative has on patients. Lisa, who oversees the organisation of clothing and toiletries, expressed her heartfelt gratitude for Gippsprint’s support and encourages other local businesses to get on board and support the initiative.

Brian from Gippsprint added, “As a local business, we’re super proud to support community initiatives like The Wear House. It’s all about locals helping locals and creating a stronger, more caring community here in Latrobe City.”

Donations of new clothing—especially men’s T-shirts, toiletries and underwear are in constant demand to sustain the project’s mission. To learn more about how you can contribute, contact the Latrobe Regional Health Community Engagement team at (03) 5173 8577.
