CAB Awareness Week 9th - 15th March 2020
Today marks the start of "CAB Awareness Week"
With the increasing digitisation of government processes and the withdrawal of public counter services, we want to highlight the role the CAB plays in responding to people’s needs and supporting inclusion in society. While some services are getting harder to access, the CAB is there for people in a way that works for them – whether it’s face to face, by phone or online.
This is the basis of our Awareness Week theme which is “We’re here”. We see this as an opportunity to reinforce the many ways that the CAB is here for people e.g.:
> To help
> For free
> For everyone
> Whatever your problem
> Face to face, kanohi ki te kanohi
> Online - website, online chat
> In the local community
> To advocate on issues
> For your rights
> For young and old
> For migrants

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
