The event will be held at Scone RSL Club on February 18, starting at 7pm.

Manager Lee Watts said funds raised would assist the service to purchase a new building or relocate to another venue.

“The office space we currently rent has no room for growth and, without new services that are able to generate income, the service will have to reduce its opening days,” she said.

“A new building will provide many opportunities to expand the services we already offer to the community and will allow the service to invite additional outreach services to the area. 

“This would generate much-needed income to continue a five-day-a-week service.”
