Hi there Hawkes Bay people – am still seeking your help – we are needing more collectors for the Breast Cancer Pink Ribbon Appeal in Hastings.
Thank you everyone who has responded to my first post - we still need another 50 volunteers to cover the area effectively. Could you help - just two hours of your time is all it takes?
The dates for 2021 are Friday 29 and Saturday 30 October and we are all set to collect at these sites:
• Bunnings;
• Countdown;
• Mega Mitre 10 (this year listed as two doors: MM10 – East Door and MM 10 – West Door);
• New World Hastings (this year listed as two doors: NW Hastings Heretaunga St Entrance and NW Hastings – Hastings St Entrance);
• Pak ‘N Save; and
• Unichem Pharmacy Stortford Lodge (fingers crossed for a big Lotto prize that weekend).
Registrations are now open and so you could do any one of the following to register for this year:
• you could go to the web site - www.breastcancerfoundation.org.nz...
• or I am more than happy to assist if you contact me – either send me a message here or email susiemcc@xtra.co.nz
Please ask your friends and family to lend a helping hand – blokes are more than welcome – remember – men can get breast cancer too!
Collecting is a doddle and those of you who have collected before know that people are generally very happy to contribute to this important cause.
Just send me an email if you have any questions.
I look forward to working with you all – in the pink: a scarf, a skirt, a bow-tie, earrings, a whimsey, a wig, a t-shirt/jacket/jumper, pink feather boa, pink bowler hat – some / any / all of those!
Regards
Susie McCutcheon
Pink Ribbon Appeal Co-ordinator for Hastings

If an emergency happens, you know they’re here to help.

If your property catches fire or you’re in a car crash, it is the volunteers and career firefighters of Fire and Emergency New Zealand who come running to help.

As soon as that siren goes, they drop what they’re doing and put your safety first.

Behind our tremendous volunteers are another group of community heroes, who get less attention but are vital to Fire and Emergency.

It’s the employers and co-workers who support our volunteers at work, knowing that at any moment they may need to leave and respond to a crisis.

Did you know Fire and Emergency give recognition to the local businesses who support this important work with the Proud Employer mark?

Look out for this mark on businesses in your community or find out which of your local businesses are Proud Employers of Fire and Emergency volunteers here.

And you can show your support for our hardworking fire crews by making a comment on this post – why not share a tribute you would like to make to our firefighters.

Pictured here are four of the 12,000 volunteers who work across the country. Left to right: Marshall (Marsh) Anderson, Jarrad West, Iain Powell, and Marsh’s brother Ti Anderson. All work at Fonterra and volunteer for the local fire brigade.

Print specialist Tracy Reynolds had been working at NZ Post as a print operator for 13 years before she decided to embark on studying towards an NZ Diploma of Print Industry Management Level 5, a qualification she has now completed.

“I’m not the normal age student!” she laughs. “I knew it would be a lot of work, but I was assured that I would have plenty of support from the NZ Post team and I did feel I needed a challenge at the time. Given the current climate right now with COVID-19, I knew the qualification would be an advantage if I was to take another path within NZ Post.”

Tracy has just been named as the Diploma of Print Management Student of the Year at the recent national Pride in Print awards, an honour she says was “absolutely blown away” to receive.

Upskilling is for everyone - you don't need to be new to your industry to gain a qualification and advance in your career!
Tracy is a perfect example of this.
