Certificates awarded
Volunteers of the Animal Welfare League Central Coast branch in Woy Woy were awarded certificates of appreciation at a special ceremony on June 9.
The certificates were in recognition of the outstanding work and long-term commitment of volunteers.
The awards were presented by Central Coast branch president Mr Ian Burns.
Awards went to Roz Burns, Bev Houston, Carol Griffiths, Elizabeth Strachan, Marj Rivett, Helen Cowan, Barbara McDermott , Jo Tomkin and Rhona Crowhurst for their long time contribution and commitment in helping the animals and residents on the Central Coast.
Publicity officer Ms Paula White said: "These volunteers contribute in various ways where some hold positions on the executive team, others work in the Thrift shop while other members make craft items, cakes, sweets and jams for our fundraising stalls.
"Like all volunteers, they do it because they love animals and mostly because they love to help others and make a difference to the lives of the animals.
"Volunteering is a great way to help the community and make new friends and also helps keep people active in the community."
