Nurturing Families charity URGENT APPEAL in "dire need of children's clothing from newborn to 10 years"

Julia from Henderson

🚨 URGENT APPEAL: We're in dire need of children's clothing from newborn to 10 years old. The demand is unprecedented, and our donations are depleting rapidly. Today alone, we have 76 orders we can't fulfill due to insufficient stock.

Please ensure donated items are in good condition—no rips, stains, or holes. If you wouldn't pass it to a loved one please kindly refrain from donating it. Your help in washing and sorting items by size would immensely speed up our distribution process.

We are 6/42 Henderson Valley road. Open 9-2 Monday- Thursday
The items you donate will clothe a child in need of some warmth and together we can really make a difference! ❤️

to address this dire need, they are opening up for a one off delivery drop in over THIS weekend. - Saturday 8 May, 10am to 3pm - 6/42 Henderson Valley Road

if you're in West Auckland please consider supporting this awesome charity either with donations (CURRENTLY as of 4 June "dire need of children's clothing from newborn to 10 years") (or with TIME*)

if you can't help with donations, ALL GOOD - maybe consider donating your TIME - lending a hand with help (an hour or two of extra hands can really make a difference)

Secure your homes over summer

The Team from New Zealand Police

Police are reminding people to keep their homes secure during the summer months.

Inspector Glenda Barnaby, Christchurch Area Prevention manager, says daytime burglaries are just as common as nightime burglaries.
“Burglaries can be committed at any time of the day, and coming into warmer months there is more opportunity for thieves."
"Although a majority of burglaries involve forced entry through windows and doors, we are starting to see more incidents at insecure premises. Police deal with cases where burglaries are committed in broad daylight, sometimes even while the victim is at home. Good weather means open doors and windows, which makes homes more vulnerable to burglars.”

Inspector Barnaby says there’s a few things people can do to reduce their changes of a burglary being committed.
⚠️ If you’re going outside for gardening, relaxing in the sun, or working in the garage, take a moment to lock your doors and secure your windows first.
⚠️ Do the same at night when you go to bed - keep your doors and windows secure and close your curtains. Fitting window stays means you can get a breeze coming through, while keeping your windows secure.
⚠️ Get to know your neighbours - let them know if you’re going away and look out for one another.”

If you see any suspicious activity, people or vehicles in your neighbourhood, don't hesitate to contact Police.
If you witness or suspect any illegal activity, please call 111 if it is happening now, or make a report through 105 either online or over the phone, if it is after the fact.
