Sam was disengaged and struggling to find meaning in his daily routine of attending school, doing chores, and playing video games. Then, he was invited to join a Graeme Dingle Foundation programme, which introduced him to the outdoors.

After the wilderness adventure, Sam became more confident and self-assured, and his teachers noticed a positive change in his sociability and willingness to ask questions in class.

He developed a "give-it-a-go" attitude. Inspired by his newfound passion for the outdoors, Sam plans to join the New Zealand Defence Force after finishing school.

We have a new volunteer programme that we're very excited to share with you! In this role, you will offer social support to people claiming asylum in the Auckland region through:
• Providing local orientation and information about the area/city/country
• Assisting clients to connect with other services and agencies

• Advocating for people to access their entitlements if needed

Requirements:
You’ll need to be familiar with your local area, open to working cross culturally, be resourceful and good at taking initiative.

Comprehensive training will be provided, including key concepts relating to asylum, intercultural communication, and entitlements.
Training takes approximately 12 hours and is delivered over several evenings and/or weekends.

Police vetting, reference check, and pre-training interview are required for this role.



Time commitment:
Volunteers need to commit at least a few hours a week, but there are no set time shifts. The time you spend with a family/individual will vary week to week, so you’ll need to be flexible and work as part of a team.
To apply for this role, you will need to commit to volunteer for a period of at least three months.

Poll: Should all homes have curtains?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Even well-insulated homes can lose up to 45% of the room's heat without having adequate curtains. This is why Curtain Banks are in high demand at this time of year.

Even well-insulated homes can lose up to 45% of the room's heat without having adequate curtains. This is why Curtain Banks are in high demand at this time of year.

A petition is circulating to get curtains added as part of the Healthy Homes Standards in the hopes of helping renters avoid living in cold, damp conditions. Do you think curtains should be mandatory for New Zealand homes?

Has anyone lost a ginger cat?

Justine from Saint Johns

We’ve had a cat coming in to the house for several weeks and for the first time got a glimpse of it. He/she actually came in through the cat door and into the kitchen while we were home ( normally it’s when we are out or at night into the laundry) to eat our cats food.

He/she actually came in through the cat door and into the kitchen while we were home ( normally it’s when we are out or at night into the laundry) to eat our cats food. The poor thing ran out when we called our cat but he didn’t run off completely which makes us think he/she either has a family somewhere or has maybe been lost or left behind. I put some food on the lawn to see if we could identify any injuries etc and try to take a pic. We got a couple of pretty bad ones - attached. Just hoping someone out there might recognise him/her. One of the pics is clear enough to zoom in on. 👍🏻 we are at the back of the golf course on Panapa Drive.
