CAPS receives cheque
Member for Peats Ms Marie Andrews has visited the Child Abuse Prevention Service at Umina and presented a cheque for $8000.
This was the money approved by Minister for Community Services, Ms Faye Lo Po, when the centre was threatened with closure.
The money was made available to allow the centre to remain open for another six months.
Centre co-ordinator Ms Carolyn Goddard said: "This was just what we needed.
"We didn't want to just close and let our clients down.
"Now we can continue our service for a while longer."
