Area Coordinators

Are you keen on organising your colleagues and friends to collect for a cause close to your heart?

Time commitment: Filling collection times in the lead up to the day and then managing the site on the day. 1 hour a week in the lead up to 30th August and all day Friday 30th August.

Meals in Advance

Gather a group of 4-6 people together and meet up at Margaret Stewart House to prepare boxed meals. These will be stored in the freezer so guests can access a quick, nourishing meal whenever they need.

Cooking together is a fun, team-bonding experience and at the same time you are providing easy meals and comfort food to guests and families going through cancer treatment.

All food and equipment supplied.

Time commitment: as needed, weekdays 10am - 1pm or Saturdays by arrangement.
