All power to the property spruikers, judging by this from Suncorp today:
The Block has become an ‘institution’ in Australia after more than 15 years of inspiring millions of homeowners.
In a Block first, this year Suncorp’s Store Manager, Amber Nijenhuis will make a regular appearance during the show, helping contestants keep their project finances on track throughout the series.
“Keeping your costs on track can be a difficult task with unexpected costs around each corner and the temptation of spending more here and there. I’m excited to help contestants tackle their renovation costs,” Ms Nijenhuis said.
Suncorp’s EGM Brand and Marketing, Mim Haysom, said the Group was thrilled to partner with Channel Nine and The Block for a second year.
“The Block celebrates the potential of the Great Australian Dream,” Ms Haysom said.
“Through our partnership with The Block, we can highlight how putting considered savings goals and budgets in place and sticking to them can help everyday Aussies reach their goals sooner.”
Suncorp will also back a competition giving viewers a chance to win up to $25,000 and partner with award-winning interior designer Shaynna Blaze on a Budget Better series for online platforms.
