We're more than just tea and scones...

Behind the scenes! Offical pics coming soon
So great to have Val from the @womensinstitute in Somerset attend our meeting tonight and hear about the WI and their activities
We’re so thrilled to hand over more of our Labours of Love hand decorated calico bags and a donation to the @royalforwomen gynaecology ward. The bags are given out to ladies needing vaginal dilators as part of their treatment. It’s always a pleasure to have Ellen at our meetings to help us learn more about gyno cancers, treatment and the impact of our labours of love bag have on patients.
Our CEO, Danica Leys, was pleased to accept $2,836,088.96 from Coles - the total amount raised by Coles and matched dollar for dollar during their appeal in August and September. Thanks to this generosity from @colessupermarkets and their customers, CWA of NSW can continue to assist drought-affected farmers with household expenses #drought #droughtrelief #thankyou
If you’re looking to buy strawberries to turn into jam, we are only too happy to share our favourite strawberry jam recipe with you. You might get a softer set with berries that are a couple to days old but it’ll still be delicious 🍓🍓🍓 LINK IN BIO http://www.cwasydneycity.org/spring-strawberry-jam
Please continue to support our Aussie farmers. Remember to wash and cut your berries PRIOR to eating them. #cutthemupdontcutthemout #supportlocal #eatlocal
Today is #RUOkday - our national day dedicated to reminding everyone that ANY day is the day to ask, “Are you ok?” and start a conversation that could save a life. If you know someone who is struggling, please reach out, ask the question, let them know you care, that they’re not alone and that help is available. #ruokeveryday #ruok #ruokday
Is it time for morning tea yet? #cookies #homemade #handmade #cwa #cwasydneycity
CWA of NSW are continuing to distribute drought aid to farmers and farming dependent contractors all around NSW. The latest figures show that CWA of NSW has distributed over $1 million to approximately 600 recipients since we began the scheme. Partnerships with Coles, the National Farmers Federation (in conjunction with Rotary and Channel 9) and the Red Cross will ensure that the drought aid grants scheme can continue to run for some time. If you are aware of people that would like to apply for the grant, you can provide them with the link below (and in our bio) where they will find the application form and a description of the eligibility criteria. If you would prefer a paper form to be mailed to you please get in touch with CWA of NSW State Office. https://www.cwaofnsw.org.au/droughtaid.html #cwasydneycity #droughtrelief #drought #droughtassistance #cwa #cwansw #countrywomensassociation

We’re just so thrilled to see the pics of everyone’s bakes following our “perfect scone” workshop on Tuesday. @kyticordis has made afternoon tea today following the recipes and tips we provided. Save us a scone!! #cwa #cwasydneycity #scones
Thank you to everyone who joined us last night for The Perfect Scone Workshop - we hope you had a wonderful time learning the tips and tricks of the perfect scone. We encourage you to get in there and give it a go - after all, practice makes perfect. This event would not have been possible without the help of @anthony_silvio and the team at @brasseriebread whose lovely venue and kitchen we were able to use. Thanks to @provenanceflourandmalt for their lovely Lancer flour and to @pepesaya, @vannellacheese and @depalmasalumi whose generous donations of butter, cheese and small goods filled our grazing table along with @brasseriebread’s delicious breads. A massive thanks to all the branch members from @cwasydneycity for helping on the night to make this a success! #cwa #cwasydneycity #scones #cwaawarenessweek
It’s the inaugural “beat off”. Congrats to our winner @cookingwithnanaling!!
