Free labour
BLOKES is a community ministry based at Northcote Baptist church. Teams of men want to help residents on the North Shore who may be elderly, infirm, disabled, single mothers, widows or unable to afford to hire labour.
A team will work on a Saturday morning or afternoon for up to 3 hours to complete a task that is beyond those that qualify. The only request is that you pay the kindness onward to someone else.
