RAPID RELIEF TEAM SUPPORTS GOOD FRIDAY APPEAL FOR A NINTH YEAR

The Rapid Relief Team (RRT) was up from sunrise to serve up 1,200 meals in support of the annual Good Friday Appeal to raise funds for The Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH) in Victoria.

Thirty RRT volunteers were on hand to provide hot, delicious food in the courtyard of RCH Melbourne, making sure kids and families, hospital staff, and other special guests were well-fed throughout the day.

Melbourne LTL Billy Salisbury said it is the ninth year RRT has supported the Good Friday Appeal for RCH.

“RRT loves events like the Good Friday Appeal – our volunteers provided quality food to the RCH community, making it a great day for all and helping them to reach their fundraising goal,” said Billy.

“Thirty volunteers were on the barbecues from the crack of dawn, cooking up bacon and egg rolls, sausage sandwiches and RRT Signature Burgers.

“We are so happy and humbled to have been part of this event since 2016, and we hope to be back for a tenth year in 2026,” he said.

“RCH has such a significant impact on the lives of kids in our community, and that is why the Good Friday Appeal has such incredible support and raises a huge amount of money.”

This year the Good Friday Appeal raised a total of $23,822,792.

As the charitable arm of the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church, RRT supports frontline workers and emergency services by providing food, donations and other resources, as well as hosting events for the community.

Established in 2013 to assist emergency services in times of disaster and crisis by providing meals and other support, it’s expanded to more than 16,000 volunteers and provides support to the community through charitable donations and events.
