Merry Xmas Everyone
We just wanted to thank all our amazing volunteers we have had this year, knitters, sewers and crocheters.
Many of you are older survivors who I call "warriors " as you havd been so brave to share your journey and how you were made to feel ashamed many years ago for asking for help and now feel like you're healing by volunteering for the young ones who were just like you at the same age.
We would love your support to vote for our lovely tree which is up in The Crossing called THE HEALING TREE it has all been made by volunteers including the tree itself.
We also are selling wildflower seed bombs packs for a fundraiser for $18 .( great teacher or Secret Santa gifts),.Single Serve Xmas Cakes ($7 &$8gf) and truffles. I will post these in another post but please support us this xmas to support youth affected by sexual harm.
Just a wee reminder we are NOT a foodbank that MSD keeps telling people we are, we done have food, and we don't take referrals from the public.
Have a lovely Xmas and thanks for your support 😀

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

2025 has been massive. The Luxon-led Government's attacks on workers, on Te Tiriti, on pay equity, on educators, on health workers, and on the public service, have been relentless.
But despite everything thrown at working people, we've also seen some massive wins. We've fought back together with strike action. We've unified with days of action. We have focused on what matters. Make no mistake, 2026 will be wild, and we are ready for it! Source - New Zealand Council of Trade Unions
