Christmas meal on a budget.

With the rising cost of living, the CWA of NSW - Hawkesbury Evening Branch and Richmond Community Services Inc have joined forces to host an event to demonstrate how to make the most of your pantry and create a delicious Christmas meal on a budget.

As well as learning new recipes, you’ll get to taste the dishes once they are prepared.
