Thank you so much to Wendy Bourne MP for your generous contribution to the Rosewood Community Centre Community Dignity Boxes! 💛

Your donations are greatly appreciated — and very much needed.

Our Community Dignity Boxes provide a little relief, dignity and support to local people who are doing it tough. They are largely made possible through the generosity of our community, local businesses and supporters who donate essential items.

Every donation, big or small, helps us keep these boxes stocked and available for those who need them. 💛

Thank you, Wendy, for supporting our community and helping us make a difference. 🌻

Great to drop into the Rosewood Community Centre with a donation to support the important work they do for our community. ❤️

A big thank you to the wonderful volunteers who give their time to support local families and make Rosewood even stronger. 🙏
