The crew at Fire & Rescue NSW 373 East Maitland get behind a good cause by painting the trees at their station blue as part of the Blue Tree Project.
The Blue Tree Project is a mental health awareness initiative started in 2018 by Kendall Whyte after her brother, Jayden, took his own life.
The project's guidelines require painters to only colour dead trees and to use non-toxic paint to prevent any impact on the environment.
Bringing awareness to this concern is such a good idea. Cool that the guidelines call for only painting on dead trees. I was worried there for a second... :) (Thanks for your time taken in stopping by my first January word pic. Appreciate that, Annie.)
