22.01.2022 WE NEED YOUR HELP - CALL FOR GIFTS: Although not everyone celebrates Christmas, it is a time of year that's about giving and spending time with the people you love. That makes this time of year even harder for those who don't have anyone and are doing it tough. ... Just like last year, we're call on our networks to donate presents we can gift to everyone who comes to our final A Beautiful Food Experience lunch for 2019. Gifts should be small, in brand new condition and something that could be given to men/women of varying ages. Examples include socks, t-shirts, soaps, scarfs. If you have gifts to donate please drop them off to the South Melbourne Market Office located in the centre of the Market by SUNDAY 1ST DECEMBER (Please do not wrap your gifts) THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT #communityconnections #socialinclusion #abeautifulfoodexperience köy restaurant Simply Spanish Paco Y Lola Claypots Evening Star-South Melbourne Market South Melbourne Market City Of Port Phillip
