Quilt sets donated to women's refuge
The Older Women's Network Deepwater Woy Woy has donated 10 sets of quilt covers and doonas as well as a large laundry product donation to Allawah House in East Gosford.
"Allawah House is a refuge accommodation centre for women over the age of 55 some of whom are victims of domestic and/or family violence," said network secretary Ms Jennifer Brown.
"The Network decided to support the Allawah House Project after joining the Action on Housing for Older Women committee set up by Member for Gosford Ms Liesl Tesch.
"Residents are assisted into affordable housing and the committee members work hard to kit those residents out when they get move out of Allawah house.
"This allows new women to take up the rooms which have been vacated and the process starts afresh."
