Coffs Harbour Women’s Shed hosts BBQ Fundraiser for Survivors of Domestic Violence

THE Coffs Harbour Women’s Shed Project Committee is inviting the local community to a BBQ fundraiser supporting Warrina Domestic & Family Violence Specialist Services on Friday, 7 November.

Running from 10:00am to 2:00pm on the front lawn at 41 Gordon Street, Coffs Harbour, the event will feature a relaxed morning tea and community barbecue, with all proceeds going to support women and children escaping domestic and family violence.

“This fundraiser is about giving back to our community and showing that we’re here, we care, and we’re committed to helping women rebuild their lives,” Coffs Harbour Women’s Shed Committee project lead Alex Miller said.

Warrina provides crisis accommodation, counselling, and vital support services to women and children across the Coffs Coast region.

Funds raised from the BBQ will help ensure those in crisis can continue to find safety, shelter, and hope when they need it most.

“Every dollar raised goes towards life-changing support, helping women and children find safety and start again,” she said.

The Coffs Harbour Women’s Shed Project is supported by the Lions Club of Coffs Harbour.

Community members are encouraged to drop in, buy a snack, and show their support for local women’s safety initiatives.
