At the group’s 45th birthday party, Betty Keen, Barbara Chinnock, Sue Hall and Elizabeth Russell received service medals for decades of volunteering.
Ms Keen’s medal marked 30 years with the group.
She’s served as branch secretary, helped organise events and worked hard behind the scenes.
Current treasurer Ms Hall, Ms Chinnock and Ms Russell have each served at least 20 years.
A service medal was also awarded to Joy Cappadona for 10 years’ service, including her role in the Friends’ teddy bear knitting program for hospitals.
