DEAR News Of The Area,

ON behalf of all the people I would like to say Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year to our volunteers that put their heart and soul into the work that they do for others, from the SES, firies, Coast guard, charity workers, hospital employees, blood bank, nursing home volunteers, community transport, meals on wheels drivers, carers for the frail and elderly and many, many more.

Being humble means recognising that we are not on earth to see how important we can become, but to see how much difference we can make in the lives of others.

Regards,
Phyllis TAYLOR,
Coffs Harbour.
