Meals on Wheels Central Coast proudly hosted a special BBQ event on Wednesday, 22 May 2024 at their Tuggerah Head Office to celebrate the incredible contributions of their volunteers as part of National Volunteer Week 2024. The event, which saw over 60 dedicated volunteers in attendance, was a resounding success filled with delicious food, laughter and heartfelt conversations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The BBQ, hosted by Volunteer and Program Coordinator, Amy Baulman, put on a delightful lunch that brought together the entire Meals on Wheels Central Coast family. To show the organisation\u2019s appreciation, Meals on Wheels Central Coast staff cooked the BBQ, allowing the volunteers to sit back and enjoy a meal. The atmosphere was filled with camaraderie and appreciation as volunteers enjoyed a day dedicated to acknowledging their tireless efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
