Tommy Jeffs is back in glitter as he takes his cabaret show to Forbes in July, in aid of Ronald McDonald House.

So, the perpetually busy Canowindra legend will be taking his cabaret show to Forbes for Christmas in July in collaboration with Forbes Shire Council.
“I have had friends that have used Ronald McDonald House. They are getting more and more people over there and it is becoming harder to raise money to support the good work they are doing. It is much easier to raise a lot of money in one night, than to do a lot of little fundraisers.”
Tommy knows this well, after a career of fundraising over $1 million, which earned him an OAM last Australia Day.
