Want to join the worlds largest humanitarian organisation and help your local community at the same time? If you love talking to people, are computer savvy and like organising, then this is the role for you.
We are looking for someone to assist our existing volunteer coordinator with her duties on a casual basis, about a week or so every month OR two weeks at a time every 2 months.

Your main responsibilities will be taking calls from residents in the Cambridge community who require transport to medical appointments in Hamilton and coordinating with our volunteer driving team to arrange the journey. Your key role would be to match the needs of residents to the availability of our volunteer drivers.

This role can be done from home and we will provide a mobile phone to take calls on.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Derelict Tokanui Hospital buildings will be demolished and contaminated land cleaned up so the site can be offered back to iwi.
