Opening of local Pataka (Community Pantry)
The wonderful team at BestStart Gillies Avenue, 181 Gillies Ave, Epsom have just created a beautiful Pataka (community pantry).
They created the Pataka after noticing an absence in the community for an easy, sustainable way to donate, swap and provide support for those without.
Their aim is to be able to give back to the local community and give support to those who need it whilst also ensuring that the environment is protected by being able to reduce, reuse and recycle.
They'd love for you to come and check it out, donate and help spread some aroha in our community!
