Please support our Street Appeal!

Phillip Harris from Mary Potter Hospice

For 40 years we’ve provided compassionate, quality hospice care for the terminally ill and their families in our community. Thanks to your generosity, we provide that care when and where you need us, free of charge.

Mary Potter Hospice will be out on the streets of Wellington, Porirua, and Kāpiti on Friday 17 and Saturday 18 May for our Annual Appeal. Please donate when you see us - every dollar helps keep our services free. If you don't have cash, we'll have Eftpos at some locations, or you can donate via our website.

We’ve been your Hospice since 1979 and this year, we’re celebrating 40 years with you. Please help us, and give generously this Appeal. Donate here!

Thank you so much for your support

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
