The Friends of the Helmeted Honeyeater’s (FOHH) portable toilet on a trailer was taken sometime over the weekend between the evening of Friday 23 June and early morning Monday 26 June.
It was removed from the conservation area near 1345 Macclesfield Road and the thieves cut through two padlocked gates to gain entry.
The portable toilet was purchased by Friends of the Helmeted Honeyeater using grant funding through Zoos Victoria Totes 4 Wildlife program. The portable toilet on the trailer was used for community activities within the conservation area, and loaned out to other not-for-profit groups to use.
“It was really important to have this facility for our volunteers, and it helped to make our community programs more accessible to all,” said Environmental Coordinator at FOHH Eliza Lamb.
“It’s really disappointing to lose this resource, particularly for school groups when they visit us, and this theft has directly impacted the local community and volunteers.”
