Christmas embodies a real and inclusive generosity that no other time of the year can match. Yes, there is stress, but there is also kindness – to those alone and in need.
If you'd like to help spread some Christmas cheer and put a smile on someone's face, MECOSS welcomes contributions of hand-made or shop-bought Christmas cards crafted with hand written messages, for distribution to elderly people confined at home or an age-care facility this festive season.
A collection box has been placed in the foyer of the All Saints’ Community Centre, 30 Cook Street, Howick. Christmas cards can dropped in the box, Monday to Friday between 8:00am and 4:00pm until 13 December.
Tips: Have fun being creative, fill your message with love, make sure your writing is legible, and please keep the envelope unsealed.

road these days,a lot seem to have a space to get them off the road
but don't use it, A lot of streets get down to being 1 lane,
I have contacted AT about parked cars too near the corner, blocking vision,facing wrong way only way they are interested is if car has no
rego or wof,
new housing brings more cars,but a lot don't need to park on the road
I said to a AT person a few weeks ago why wait till someones killed
hopefully now council will look at this issue and come up with a solution
