Stroke group receives donation

The Lodge Morning Star has donated $1000 to the Woy Woy Stroke Recovery Club and Working Age Group at a presentation night and Christmas social dinner.

The evening was held at the Gosford Masonic Centre on Monday, December 20, and was attended by about 100 people.

The Woy Woy Stroke Recovery Club regularly use the hydrotherapy pool at Woy Woy hospital and takes members who are disadvantaged on monthly bus trips to various venues around the Coast.

Master of the Lodge Morning Star, Mr Noel Higgs, said the Masonic group originating from the Peninsula liked to help organisations whenever they could.

"We support any charity organisations that are in need, we have fundraisers and if we have enough money we support them," he said.

Representatives of the Woy Woy Stroke Club, Ms Helen Anderson and Ms Judy Shearman, expressed their gratitude for the donation and thanked all who supported the fundraiser.
