The Market Place volunteer Cathy passes away

Published: 22 July 2020
It is with great sadness we’ve learned that Cathy, one of the original volunteers at The Market Place, has passed away after a short illness.
Cathy volunteered at The Market Place from its early days back in 2016 in the old Western Avenue shop through to its present location in Parklands.
Here’s a video we shot with Cathy back in 2017, were she spoke about why she devoted her free time to giving back to her community. We think that her final line in the video sums up the impact she had on us and our customers: “If you can brighten someone’s day then why not?”
We’d like to send our heartfelt condolences to Cathy’s family and friends and recognise the tireless work she did for The Market Place and its customers. X
