About us
Tomaree Community Hospital Auxiliary
Our group of dedicated volunteers focuses on raising funds to support our local hospital and the health services. While we do not volunteer directly within the hospital due to its specialised nature, our work plays an important role in ensuring the hospital and associated health facilities have the equipment they need to support patient care.
Being part of this statewide Auxiliary (UHA) offers both meaningful challenges and lasting friendships.
Over 3,600 dedicated volunteer members across NSW raise funds which are then used to purchase much-needed equipment and items for their facilities.
