Café Pyrenees at East Grampians Health Service is a vibrant hub for staff, students and visitors, and thanks to Ritchies IGA Community Benefit Program, it has received a much-needed facelift.

In just over two years, through community members nominating East Grampians Health Service as their nominated charity on the Ritchies Community Benefit Program card, $5882 has been received by the health service.

Ritchies IGA Ararat staff members Jean Thomas and Samantha Chick visited Cafe Pyrenees and met with EGHS executive staff to check out the new-look Café.

“Due to it being a great meeting place for staff and students as well as visitors to the health service, serving fantastic coffee and delicious hot and cold meals, it is becoming more and more popular, and it was felt that using the Ritchies funding would give back to our staff, who deserve a modern and bright café in which to enjoy their breaks,” EGHS chief executive Nick Bush said.

“Thank you to the team at Ararat IGA for your support of the health service and to the community of Ararat and district for nominating East Grampians Health Service as your charity through the Ritchies Community Benefit Program, we appreciate your support.”
