“They used fundraising favourites including sausage sizzles, raffles and cake stalls.”
Cr Hill said the donation will go to helping local residents in our city recover from this unprecedented flood.
“Healthe Care has told us they’re keen to contribute and this donation will help families and businesses,” Cr Hill said.
