Good session this morning with our Christmas Appeal - visiting the Magic Bus. The New Weddington Community Team were up early packing food and gift items for the appeal - 7 boxes full and counting!! All will be distributed by Communities@Work to disadvantaged families in Canberra over Christmas.
Thanks to my fellow New Weddingtonians / Santa's helpers who helped pack and deliver due to my bad back (honest ) The Magic 106FM people were great, let us take some promo shots outside the bus and I have a slot for an interview later this week off the back of it It was great to see people turning up a bit later and lent it a really Christmassy feel - even the real Santa turned up!
Next stop the weekly Haig Park Christmas Markets where we have a New Weddington Christmas tree parked and will be giving away our NW-branded Christmas tree decorations wth QR codes linked to donation page of the Appeal.
Once Xmas dust has settled, we intend to formalise the New Weddington Community Team to reflect our nation's importance on community benefit and engagement in our strategy, with a calendar of events to allow effective planning and evaluation of activity. Ho ho ho!!
