💖 The HMAS Whyalla is lighting up magenta from 26 July to 2 August in support of DonateLife Week. 💖

DonateLife Week is an important opportunity to raise awareness about organ and tissue donation and the incredible difference it makes in the lives of Australians every day.

By shining magenta, the HMAS Whyalla stands as a symbol of hope, generosity, and the life-changing impact of donation. It’s also a reminder to register as a donor and, most importantly, have a conversation with your loved ones about your wishes.

🚗 If you're out and about this week, drive by and see the HMAS Whyalla glowing magenta in support of this important cause.

💙 On 25 July, the HMAS Whyalla will light up blue in support of World Drowning Prevention Day. 💙

By joining landmarks across Australia, the City of Whyalla is helping raise awareness of the importance of drowning prevention and remembering the lives lost to drowning each year.

The blue illumination is a reminder that anyone can drown, but no one should. Together, we can help prevent drowning through education, awareness and safer practices around water.

Join us in supporting this important cause by wearing blue, sharing the message, and helping make water safety a priority for everyone.
