"Obviously the Winter Relief is one of those things. [It's] been going around probably longer than most of us."
Now in its 61st year, the appeal raises funds for the St Vincent de Paul Society, the Launceston Benevolent Society, the Salvation Army and the Launceston City Mission.
With a target of $75,000, more than $61,000 has already been donated.
