Can Assist Bathurst, which helps people who are being treated for cancer and are having trouble with the costs, operates from Daffodil Cottage.
"We help with the cost of medication, electricity and rates and other items that we decide are necessary for the patient," Can Assist Bathurst's Barbara Piddington said.
"These claims must be approved by the staff at Daffodil Cottage."
Ms Piddington said the branch does not receive government support, so relies on the generosity of the community.
The Can Assist Bathurst Christmas lunch will be held on November 14 at the Bathurst RSL and will include a two-course meal and prizes.
Cost is $40 per person. Call Barbara Piddington on 6332 1036 for tickets.
