Thanks to all who responded to the initial request.
I append the updated information.
It seems they will be going down every week, so non perishable items can be dropped off any time, but fruit and veg only before a trip, so that it does not go off.
There are some new drop off points listed.
Thanks again, and Thanks to ARC.

CANBERRANS - WE NEED YOUR HELP

🦇🐨🐦CONVOY FOR WILDLIFE🐦🐨🦇

*****LIST UPDATE****
  • We have lots of fruit and veg for now but will collect again next week
  • The need is ONGOING! We won't stop collecting until our wildlife are fed and have water where they need it!
  • NEW DROP POINTS LISTED!

We have fires in our own backyard, our coastal friends and rural neighbours. There are so many sanctuaries in these areas and so much wildlife. Some pretty amazing release sites and reserves are now gone.

Our wildlife is thirsty and hungry and they need us.
