Coles comes to Christmas party for Goulburn Meals on Wheels

Goulburn branch president Michael Parsons said the committee was grateful to Coles for two $50 vouchers to assist with Christmas meals. It followed an approach by the charitable organisation.

Ham, turkey, vegetables and a pudding and custard dessert will be delivered to Meals on Wheels' 45 recipients on December 23, ahead of the big day. They'll also receive Christmas cake, a soft drink and bag of lollies.

"The vouchers from Coles will allow us to keep the meal prices down. We hope to brighten up Christmas Day for them," Mr Parsons said.

Meantime, at its recent AGM, Meals on Wheels re-elected Mr Parsons as president. Lorraine McNeil as vice-president, Joshua Grummer - treasurer and Ron Neate - secretary.
