“I can't thank you enough for all the work, help you and the Neighbourhood Centre have given me 🙏. All the work you have done on the bloody computer and phone calls etc, etc 👍, you are Tops Girl.”
– Gregg
“Your staff member came to us like a ray of sunshine and has changed so many of our clients and locals lives since. I have had clients in tears, overwhelmed and in shock at the assistance she was able to offer. Whether it be a simple voucher for petrol or food up to replacement of damaged goods from Cyclone Jasper and major flooding that occurred in this area. Her compassion for people in need was so evident that even the most anti-social of people were put at ease with her. Her empathy, knowledge and support are outstanding and her countenance with people in the most difficult situations is admirable.”
- Donna
“Compassion, friendship, understanding and respect are your gift to me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
