We had a very good
collection for Poppy Day Friday before ANZAC
Day. Once again, our thanks go out to the
RSA Ladies section, as usual they were a
great help with the sale. The collection was
$2500.00 so a big thank you to all those who
supported.
We currently have a
mobility ramp available. It is to give
Scooter entry to a house. Would prefer a
veteran or partner main thing is that house
is suitable.
