Wentworth Meals on Wheels

Community Bank Wentworth & District is all about giving back to our community💙

Each month, our directors and staff proudly volunteer their time with Wentworth Meals on Wheels, helping deliver meals prepared by the incredible team at Murray House Aged Care.

It’s proof that when great community organisations work together, big things can happen ✨

If you’re interested in volunteering, both Wentworth Meals on Wheels and Murray House would love to hear from you!

A delightful morning, enjoying a cuppa all whilst raising money for a great cause.
