Stroke club raises $800
Woy Woy Stroke Recovery Club has raised around $800 from its fundraising activities for Stroke Awareness Week which ran from September 7 to 15.
The club held a raffle which was drawn by Glen Purse from Ettalong Bowling Club and first prize won by Ron Stewart.
Second prize went to Jenny Richmond and third prize was given to Eirwen Richards.
Woy Woy Stroke Recovery Club has been running for nearly 20 years and provides support with regular hydrotherapy sessions and up-to-date information on what to do after having a stroke.
The club also provides company and friendship to stroke members and their families by holding regular bus trips, luncheons and other social functions.
The club meets every second Tuesday each month at the Peninsula Community Centre.
Anyone affected by stroke, including family members, are welcome to join the club.
For more information, contact the club on woywoystrokeclub@gmail.com.
