On kitchen duty at the Luncheon Club
November 14th, 2006
Chris Harris served up a storm at the 13th birthday celebrations of the Luncheon Club Aids Support Group Inc. With the Governor of NSW Ms Marie Bashir on mash potato duty and Chris on gravy, 80 guests celebrated 13 years of home-style cooking and community support.
Said Chris: “It was a privilege for me to lend a hand serving lunch today. Thirteen years ago Carole Ann King founded the Luncheon Club. It started as one lunch but was such a success that everyone insisted ’same time same place next week’. That was back in 1993 and Carole Ann is still helping the HIV community 13 years later.”
“The Luncheon Club is a real eye opener to what can be done with very little money and a stacks of community spirit. I was lucky enough to talk to a lot of the guests. Some of them were diagnosed with HIV over 10 years ago. Today they’re chatting away, tucking into real home-cooking.”
“I was glad that I could lend a hand on such an important occasion and I wish the Luncheon Club a very Happy Birthday with many more lunches to come.”
