Want to make a difference to peoples’ lives? Volunteer for Citizens Advice Bureau Te Awamutu.
Our volunteers help people from all walks of life. You will find the work is interesting, stimulating and fun. We work with clients by listening carefully, thoroughly researching the options available to them and by explaining the information in a way that they can use it. We also help people access information and services online or make complaints when needed.
Volunteers are the life-blood of the CAB. Most give about 4 hours every week to answer phone calls or emails from our clients, or to help them face-to-face when they come into the CAB. On top of this ‘rostered duty’, every volunteer participates in ongoing learning and development to ensure their skills and knowledge remains current and contributes to running the CAB.
We provide all our volunteers with the training, tools and ongoing support necessary to provide our service.
Contact the CAB on 07 871 4111 or pop in and see us in the Ray White Arcade, 2/213 Alexandra Street, Te Awamutu for more information.
Is there an algae issue where you are?
Once touted as an anglers paradise, and a top water-sport playground on the Waikato River, Mangakino is in danger of becoming a ghost town as toxic algal blooms slowly suck the life out of its main attraction - Lake Maraetai.
Locals say cyanobacterial algal blooms in the river’s hydro lakes have become more frequent over the past five years, and when they arrive no-one can swim or fish in them.
Is there an algae issue where you are? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
