New Pohutukawa Coast Satellite CAB in Beachlands and Mareatai

Cat Finai from Citizens Advice Bureau Pakuranga/Eastern Manukau

On Friday the 24th of January we celebrated the opening of our Pohutukawa Coast Satellite CAB, a new CAB service offered in the Beachland's and Maraetai community.

We would like to say a big THANK YOU to Janice Bain and Sue Rule for all the time and effort invested in bringing this wonderful free service to their own Pohutukawa Coast Community.

The Pohutukawa Coast Satellite CAB is open in Beachlands on the 1st and 3rd Friday of the month and in Maraetai 2nd and 4th Friday.
