In 2021โ22, The Big Issue team at Woden Community Service managed another COVID lockdown, welcomed new vendors and said goodbye to old ones. We continued to partner with The Big Issue Australiao work with vendors to sell magazines across the ACT. Vendors include people who may have experienced homelessness, addictions, mental illness or who live with a disability. Becoming a vendor allows people to earn an income, reduce their social isolation and become part of their community.
Last year, vendors were unable to sell 4 magazine editions due to the COVID lockdown, but the team continued supporting them during this time. To reach out to various community organisations for new vendors, the team visited numerous community agencies including the Red Cross Roadhouse and Orange Sky Laundry.
