A cuppa and a chat will be on the menu at the Echuca Neighbourhood House next week as it holds its annual Biggest Morning Tea event.

Echuca Neighbourhood House’s Alyx Jorgensen said the morning tea will be on Wednesday, May 22, at 39 Landsborough St, Echuca. It’s a gold coin entry and the event is between 10am and noon.

“It coincides with Volunteer Week, so we’re also inviting all of our volunteers to come along and have a morning tea to support Cancer Council,” she said.

“We actually do it every year, so it’s been going on for a couple of years now, and it’s just a really good way to support an important charity.

“We usually get around 20 to 30 people, but we’d like to make it a bit bigger and get even more people to come along so we can do raffles and games and stuff like that.”

Ms Jorgensen said the whole event is a great way to help people in the community connect with each other.

“It’s a great event to hold, and people love to come and support a research place like the Cancer Council, so it’s a good one to just come and mingle with some people and then have a delicious morning tea,” she said.

“It is a great way to bring the community together, and hopefully, it will just get bigger and bigger to support more of the community.”
