What is The Big Issue?
The Big Issue is an independent not-for-profit social enterprise that supports people experiencing homelessness, marginalisation, and disadvantage. It operates primarily by producing a fortnightly magazine sold on the streets by vendors to help them earn an income and regain their independence.
We help facilitate The Big Issue in Canberra, acting as a local partner and regional support hub to coordinate local vendors.

Become a vendor
Becoming a Big Issue vendor gives you the opportunity to sell a world-renowned street paper while earning a meaningful income.
Anyone can become a vendor and start selling the magazine straight away. All you need to do is visit the vendor support office at the Woden Community Hub and speak to a member of the team who will provide you with information and support. You will go through an induction process and sign a vendor agreement form.
Once you become a vendor, you will buy copies of The Big Issue for $4.50 to sell to your customers for $9, keeping the difference. There are plenty of pitches where you can sell the magazine and distribution points where you can buy copies.
Earning an income is only one part of being a vendor. You will also have access to training and support. Most importantly, you will be part of The Big Issue community.
