Community expo to be held at community centre

A Community Expo and Bring Your Bills Day will be held at the Peninsula Community Centre in Woy Woy on Thursday, July 27 from 9am to 3pm.

The free event will offer community members the opportunity to receive advice about energy and water bills, fines, legal concerns and tenancy issues.

Services attending on the day will include Centrelink, Legal Aid, Pacific Housing, State Debt Recovery, Service NSW, Seniors Rights Service, Ability Links, St Vincent de Paul Society and the Energy and Water Ombudsman NSW.

Coast Community Connections' families and community group manager Ms Emma Gilby said the event would provide consumers with information about government and community services of which they may be unaware.

"There are many free services, rebates and payments that are available to local residents and this event will give consumers the opportunity to gather all that information in one place.

"Locals seeking assistance in understanding various bills and fines are encouraged to make a personal appointment with stallholders for one-on-one advice, breaking down the components of their bill and identifying any rebates for which they may be eligible."

Attendees can book an appointment by contacting Coast Community Connections.
