Scenic World Shared

We are proud to support the community we live and work in, and to protect the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains around us. Through our social responsibility program, we partner with like-minded organisations and invest in programs to create a positive impact for generations to come.

Our priorities

Since we opened in 1945, we have remained a family owned and operated business. Our social responsibility program builds on decades of local philanthropy and focuses on creating lasting impact and partnerships across the following areas:

Our Reconciliation Action Plan

Our connection to Gundungurra Country is at the heart of everything we do and our reconciliation journey is a big part of how we honour this. We are proud to have a Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan to guide us on this journey.

Our partners

We want to empower our community to thrive and to protect the fragile environment around us. We invest in partnerships that create lasting impact for generations to come.

Katoomba High School

Katoomba High School passionately serves the diverse community of the Upper Blue Mountains. It is committed to inspiring students to reach their full potential and developing a culture that nourishes creative, confident, accomplished young people. We fund the school's Community Liaison Officer, every year our team mentor year 10 students, and we support range of other initiatives.

Blue Mountains World Heritage Institute

The Blue Mountains World Heritage Institute is an independent not-for-profit organisation that conducts research, collaborates worldwide and engages with communities to develop innovative strategies for conservation and sustainability. Our partnership invests in building awareness of the important work of the Institute and ensuring this work can continue for generations to come.

Homes for Older Women

The Older Women’s Network Blue Mountains has launched the Homes for Older Women program to address housing insecurity for women over the age of 55. The program connects women in the Blue Mountains with compassionate homeowners who have a vacant granny flat, house, apartment or bedroom for rent at an affordable price. We're providing funding and marketing assistance for a community awareness program.

Katoomba Public School

Katoomba Public School is an inclusive learning community that fosters a friendly, caring environment where students are encouraged to achieve their personal best through mutual respect and cooperation. The school serves a diverse community and fosters inclusivity. We've provided funding for learning technology and are exploring other programs to support.

Saving Our Species - Dwarf Mountain Pine

The Dwarf Mountain Pine is critically endangered with around 750 plants left in the wild and are limited to areas on the escarpment between Katoomba and Wentworth Falls. A collaboration of local community, native plant nurseries, Blue Mountains City Council, National Parks and Wildlife Service, and the Saving Our Species program is working to save the pine from extinction. We're helping fund and support the program in several ways, such as with hands-on specialist rope work.

Donation Requests

We support local (primarily Blue Mountains and Western Sydney) not-for-profit organisations by offering limited ticket donations for fundraising activities. We receive many requests, so delivery remains at our discretion. Please submit this form with any requests.
