Tamworth and Gunnedah's Northern Inland Credit Union (NICU) branches have chosen them for this year's annual 'Cookies For A Cause' fundraiser, with the proceeds going towards support programs for people living with mental illness.
Operational Supervisor Jeff Faint says Billabong Clubhouse is the place where local people come when they know they need support, but they are not sure where to start.

The cookies will be baked at Mikeloren's Patisserie, with baker and all-rounder Emma Eddy preparing for the onslaught of orders.
"This is a cause which is real and relevant to the team here at Northern Inland," CEO Derek McIntyre said.
He invites its members and the entire community to help celebrate by purchasing Cookies to support Billabong Clubhouse, with orders due by next Thursday.
