One Meal

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley) (19:54):

:13 On 15 June I had the privilege of volunteering for One Meal meal service, a fantastic community organisation doing great work across the State. One Meal helps feed, clothe and support the homeless and underprivileged. It provides nutritious meals weekly to those in need in several locations across Sydney. Its service patrons are provided with one main meal as well as a breakfast pack to take away, and are further assisted where possible with swags, sanitary packs, toiletries, clothing items, blankets and so on. On 15 June One Meal was at Riverwood Community Centre and I simply could not miss the opportunity to help out. It was a greatly rewarding experience, which only increased my admiration for all those involved. Despite challenging circumstances, One Meal has been soldiering on in 2020. I encourage all members to support the organisation and its members. I thank all those involved and, in particular, Emma Williams for her organisation and continued hard work.
