Organiser Pamela Pitkeathly said this year’s Biggest Morning Tea would offer a special attraction, with six of the residents’ pets ‘fundraising’ and competing to be ‘Most Pampered’.
“Beauty Point is one of the rare aged care villages that allows residents to keep pets for which we are very grateful so we thought we would put them to work this year,” she said with a laugh.
“We have their photos up in reception with a collection box underneath and invite our visitors to toss in any spare coins as every little bit helps.”
The Biggest Morning Tea at Beauty Point Retirement Resort, 33 Bernard Road, Padstow Heights, gets underway from 10am, with the goal of raising $4,000 for the Cancer Council.
