Orange Sky’s Mackay service supports people across the community experiencing homelessness and hardship through access to clean laundry and genuine, non-judgemental conversation.
Under our collaborative partnership model, Orange Sky always operates alongside other service providers, including food vans or community centres, to provide support to those doing it tough. We know that by working together as a community we can make the greatest impact.
We aim to create a safe and supportive environment at every shift. Anyone in need of support is welcome to join us and access our free laundry and shower facilities, or simply find a space for community connection.
Our laundry pods are static, standalone structures that remain at a location for an extended period. Each pod is equipped with two washing machines, two dryers and six orange chairs.
Our laundry pods in Mackay are named ‘Sarina’ and ‘Vinnies’.
