Chinapoo Village Social Welfare president Patsy Bansfield says her organisation will host a Mother's Day brunch on May 10 to celebrate the women in the community.

The event aims to highlight the contributions of mothers, both past and present, and serve as a call to action for young women to rethink their choices and call on them to focus on positive paths that can uplift and empower them.
