Secretary for the Coffs Harbour JP Branch Jill Woodlock said, “We have been pleasantly surprised at the numbers that have gone through these desks on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. “Our year-to-date are almost 3500 documents signed, and they are proving to be very popular and very diverse. “There’s always something new coming across the desks. “It is a lovely atmosphere to work in and the Library staff are very supportive.” The team of JPs recently got together to celebrate the very successful year with lunch at Chill Out Café at the Coffs Harbour Community Village. “2024 was a growth year for our JP desk coverage in the Coffs Harbour shire plus we opened desks in Coffs Harbour, Nambucca Heads and Dorrigo Libraries,” Mr Blewitt said. Including Yamba there are ten desks each operating one day during the week. By Andrea FERRARI
