Meet Our June CSP Grant Winner
Congratulations to Viv’s Recare, on being our June CSP Grant recipient. Viv’s ReCare hosts fortnightly community lunches offering carers and those they care for the chance to relax and chat to people in similar situations, in a fun, friendly, safe environment. Guests receive entertainment, live music and activities, all whilst enjoying morning tea and a delicious, two course, home-cooked lunch, at no cost. If you can assist Viv’s ReCare in the great work they do supporting our local community or would like to attend an event visit Viv’s ReCare.
“Being selected as Noel Jones’s June Community Support Program grant recipient is truly a miracle for Viv’s ReCare!
With the cost of living skyrocketing, many are struggling to afford basic essentials like food and heating. For our patrons, who are some of the most vulnerable in society, facing dementia or terminal illness daily, the funds from Noel Jones are an absolute lifeline.
These funds enable Viv’s ReCare to continue providing free fortnightly lunches and mentally stimulating activities in a warm and friendly space for our guests and their carers, who will also benefit from much-needed respite” – Viv’s Recare.
