So buy your tickets now, you are able to cancel/refund your tickets up to 7 days before our event. To purchase tickets go to www.123tix.com.au/events/42707/trundlebush-tucker-day-2024

Flannery’s Pharmacy: Next week is Dia­betes Week and the team at Flannery’s Pharmacy will be doing their part by up­grading your BGL machine for free, con­ducting free bloody glucose tests and of­fering free consultations with our very own credentialed diabetes educator, Catherine. Come and see the team in blue to see what we can do for you. Call us on 02 6852 1111 to book in.
