The Central Coast Bonsai Club has been successful in its application for funding to the Federal Government’s 2021-22 Volunteer Grants.

The club has received $4,100 to go towards several items including a printer, scanner, trollies, and shelving for storage.

Member for Robertson, Dr Gordon Reid MP met with Central Coast Bonsai Club representative, Ms Denise Allen to learn more about the bonsai club and congratulate its members.

“It was very insightful visiting Denise at her property and seeing the magnificent bonsais that she has cultivated over the many years. Bonsais truly represent perseverance and commitment as they are very difficult to grow”. Dr Reid Said.

“The funding provided to the Central Coast Bonsai Club will ensure they can continue cultivating amazing bonsais and facilitate more members of the club”. Said Dr Reid.

Central Coast Bonsai Club representative, Ms Denise Allen, says the funding will be used to acquire several items to assist the club.

“The funding provided will mean our club can purchase much-needed items that will ensure we can continue to grow. The club will buy a printer, scanner, trollies, and shelving for extra storage capacity”. Ms Allen said.

The Central Coast Bonsai Club is open to new members and meet every month at Mingara Recreation Club. The club hosts regular classes on how to grow and care for bonsais. For more information email [email protected] or visit https://www.centralcoastbonsai.com.au/
