Lynda Goes to Luna Park — and the Internet Made It Happen

A few weeks ago, we introduced you to Lynda — one of our long-time SHH!T Happens ambassadors. Lynda lives with epilepsy and an intellectual disability, and from day one, she’s brought humour, heart, and pure joy to our community.

She’s bold. She’s honest. And she’s the kind of person who makes every room lighter just by being in it.

When we asked Lynda what her dream day looked like, she didn’t skip a beat: Luna Park.

So, we set her a little challenge. If she could help bring in 100 orders of SHH!T Happens toilet paper using her code, we’d take her there ourselves. Honestly, it was meant to be a bit of fun — but what happened next reminded us just how powerful community can be.

The Internet Showed Up

After we posted Lynda’s video, it exploded.

Within three days, she hit her goal — and then some. Orders flew in from all over the country, packed with notes cheering Lynda on. People who had never met her were rallying behind her with real love, generosity, and spirit.

To everyone who supported her: you made something really special happen.

The Big Day

And we kept our promise.

Lynda went to Luna Park. And let’s just say… she lived.

She rode the Ferris wheel (twice), demolished some fairy floss, and smiled so much we’re pretty sure her cheeks still haven’t recovered. She danced, she laughed, and she soaked up every single moment.

It wasn’t a huge production. It wasn’t about VIP experiences or expensive surprises. It was about joy — pure and simple — and making someone feel celebrated just for being exactly who they are.

Why It Matters

This wasn’t just about fulfilling a challenge. And it definitely wasn’t just about toilet paper.

It was about reminding ourselves what SHH!T Happens really stands for: joy, connection, and community-powered change.

It was about making space for people to be seen, supported, and celebrated — not just in words, but in action.

So to everyone who ordered, shared, or sent Lynda a kind word: thank you. You didn’t just buy a roll. You made a memory.

And to Lynda — thank you for being the heart of it all. We’re so damn lucky to have you.
