Insurer Suncorp has teamed up with Channel 9’s The Block for a second year to help Australian homeowners and budding renovators budget better.
The deal will see Amber Nijenhuis, Suncorp’s store manager, make a regular appearance in Channel 9’s The Block, to help 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,” Nijenhuis said. “I’m excited to help contestants tackle their renovation costs.”
“The Block celebrates the potential of the great Australian dream,” said Mim Haysom, Suncorp’s EGM of brand and marketing. “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 said it will also sponsor 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.
