Blue Torch is a grassroots community initiative founded by local Muswellbrook businessman Matty Coonan. Its mission is to bring hope, practical support, and real change to people facing homelessness, and to help the wider community understand how they can make a difference.

Blue Torch focuses on two key goals: education and practical support. Education helps break down misconceptions about homelessness, while practical support provides clear steps and essential resources for those who have just become homeless.

Through partnerships with local organisations and everyday people, Blue Torch builds a network of support. Its message is simple: no one should feel invisible. Everyone deserves to be seen, supported, and given a chance to rebuild.
