Help the Victoria Theatre Trust
🎭 Help Us Keep The Vic Thriving for Generations to Come
The Victoria Theatre Trust is a separate charitable entity from The Vic Ltd, which operates the cinema. While The Vic Ltd brings stories to life on screen, the Trust works tirelessly behind the scenes to preserve and maintain the 113-year-old heritage building and upgrade costly cinema equipment.
We rely entirely on donations and community support to restore, upgrade, and protect this valuable community asset. Right now, we urgently need funds to replace the worn and tired seats to ensure comfort and accessibility for all.
✨ Your donation will help us:
• Install new, comfortable seating
• Improve the cinema experience for audiences of all ages
• Support the ongoing preservation of this iconic building
Whether you’re a regular at The Vic or a supporter of local heritage, your contribution makes a real difference

Government targeted relief
My sister is a Pensioner living in Wellsford. She has an appointment at North Shore Hospital tomorrow afternoon at 2.45pm. The 160km round trip would cost about $50 which is too expensive. Instead, she will be taking a free shuttle leaving from Wellsford at 8am tomorrow, so will have almost 6 hours wait at hospital . It is not only families with children who are struggling. I do understand that not everyone can be accommodated in the relief, but just saying.
Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?
