Film screening to raise funds for flood victims

IN THE wake of the devastating floods, Tweed Heads Police have organised a fundraising event at Hoyts Cinemas at Tweed City Shopping Centre on Sunday.

The screening will feature the family-friendly movie, Boss Baby, an animated comedy about the impact a new baby has on a family, especially their seven-year-old son who suspects all is not what it seems.

Hoyts Cinemas at Tweed City have provided two cinemas to show the movie, with both screenings starting at 10am. Doors open at 9.30am.

At the completion of the movie, Tweed Byron LAC will hold an auction at Tweed City's Cove entertainment area for items donated by local community, local businesses, NRL football clubs, AFL football clubs and more.

All funds raised will be shared between the Tweed Shire Council - Mayor Appeal Fund for flood victims and for Matthew Kabealo and Chloe-May Kabealo, 8, who was the only survivor of the tragic accident in which Chloe's mother Stephanie and her two siblings Ella-Jane Kabealo, 11, and Jacob Kabealo, 7, passed away.

Tickets for the movie screening will be $24 plus $1.50 booking fee ($25.50 total). All funds raised from the sale of movie tickets and the auction afterwards will be divided between the two worthy fundraisers. The booking fee is kindly being donated back to the two funds.

Tickets must be bought online at https://www.stickytickets.com.au/51766 as no tickets will be available at the door.
