On Thursday, the club donated 200 coffee vouchers and more than 200 individually-wrapped Tim Tams to NSW Health to be given out at the drive-through testing site.

The testing clinic is operating out of the former Clancy Motors site in Howick Street, which is now owned by the proponents of the Bathurst Integrated Medical Centre.

General manager of the RSL, Peter Sargent, said the club is aware of how difficult it can be for people who have to be tested and then wait for the results.

He hopes the donation can be used to brighten the days of people who need to be tested.

"We actually started by dropping goodies hampers around to the vaccination clinics for staff and also we dropped around to chemists and doctors surgeries originally, just to try and spread a bit of cheer," Mr Sargent said.

"And then we thought, there are people lining up in a queue, in a car, waiting to be tested and people are anxious through that process.

"It's not a pleasant process, lining up to get tested, and so we just thought what we should actually do is do a free coffee and a Tim Tam so that when those people get tested they get something nice to brighten their day."

The vouchers and Tim Tams will be handed out by the testing staff.

Western NSW Local Health District Quality, Clinical Safety and Nursing executive director Adrian Fahy received the donation and said it was likely the vouchers would be handed out over several days.
