NMIT staff sharpen their skills for Nelson's Christmas Celebration
A team of dedicated Nelson Marlborough Institute of Technology staff has volunteered to spend the first day of its holidays preparing a festive 3-course meal for Nelson’s Christmas Celebration.
The celebration will be held Friday 20 December at Greenmeadows Centre in Stoke from 11.30am to 2pm.
Tickets are $15 and on sale now until 17 December from the Nelson City Council Customer Service Centre or the Stoke Library.
Guests must bring their tickets with them and people who need support must bring their caregiver, who will also need to buy a ticket.
The event is restricted to senior citizens, including couples, who will be spending Christmas alone. Transportation is available if required – this can be booked when purchasing your ticket.
If anyone wishes to make a donation, please contact the Nelson City Council on 03 546 0200.
