Further Information:
Did you know that the Meeting House staff can assist you with shopping?

The Meeting House runs a door-to-door weekly shopping service to Lane Cove Plaza on a Tuesday and a Thursday.

The driver will collect you from home at a specified time and drop you in to Lane Cove.

He will then collect you at a prearranged time and assist to carry your shopping into your home.

The service runs for approx. 2 hours and currently costs just $15. There are limited spaces available, and bookings are essential.
