Mercy Hospice welcomes new Volunteer Coordinators
Volunteers are the life blood of Mercy Hospice. We offer a variety of different volunteering opportunities and would love to hear from you if you can commit to our truly amazing organisation.
Your valuable volunteering time may be donated to a retail shop, patient companionship (inpatient unit or in the community), transport to appointments for patients, fundraising at special events, in-house functions, beauty (manicures, pedicures, hairdressing, facials) or helping with the tea and drinks trolleys for our inpatient unit.
You may choose from permanent volunteer placements, relief or casual volunteering. Assistance is especially needed over the holiday season and weekends. With nine retail shops around the Auckland central area, opening either six or seven days a week, we are always on the lookout for willing retail volunteers. Shifts are either morning or afternoon and we welcome volunteers to apply by contacting:
● Retail and Fundraising: Sue Campin 09-376-7574 or scampin@mh.org.nz
● Patient Care Services: Nix Johnson 09-376-7567 or njohnson@mh.org.nz
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
Chrstmas light show
Hi everyone.
I have put my Xmas lights up and am currently doing the final testing.
This is an animated show set to music, so drive by viewing is not the best.
There are speakers out so you will be able to hear the music that goes with the lights.
As last year, I will have my shows running from 1st of December until 31st of Dec inclusive.
As I have neighbours, Please respect them and their properties.
Show times will be,
Sunday to Thursday 9pm to 10pm.
Friday and Saturday 9pm to 10:30pm.
Last but not least the address.
28 Harrington Rd
Henderson.
