Hospice Mid-Northland Art & Collectables Auction 2019

Adele from Hospice Mid-Northland

Held just once a year at Kerikeri’s Turner Centre, Hospice are pretty excited to reveal their amazing lineup of Local artists whom have contributed an artwork to their annual Art & Collectables Auction. On it’s 6th year, this auction just keeps growing in size and support and we know we have the perfect recipe for a great night. It’s going to be interactive and fun. Salmon on the menu and a couple of bottles for wine on your table, all for $50 it wouldn’t make sense to miss this event. Then there is the earlybird pricing at just $450 for a table of 10 available up until 21st Sept or SOLD OUT.
With Local lawyer extraordinaire Rick Palmer in the box seat, and Sabine Davison, expert auctioneer from Bayleys in the North, our Principal Sponsor for this event it will be seat of your pants stuff. The very fabulous Allie Mooney will also be regaling us with her latest work in her entertaining and halrious way!
Keeping to tradition we have 120 items in a silent auction with our screens being able to be viewed from your seat…trying to beat the person bidding against you becomes a game of cat and mouse. Our nurses especially love attending this event, the comraderie and generosity they see is really incredibly humbling - it brings out the best in people. It’s also our 30th year operating in the Mid North too – which is just pretty special!
With a new addition of a ‘Buy Now’ table we have been squirrelling away some pretty fantastic items. There is absolutely something for everyone…..From an eclectic range of English Butter Dishes that are making a huge comeback, to some beautiful jewellery from Tiffany & Co.
We also celebrate the contribution that Northern Regional Correctional Facility Art’s Programme will gift for this event, another fantastic community relationship that supports us with some donated items.

For ticket/table enquiries please contact the office on (09) 407 7799 or email Adele at fundraising@hospicemn.org.nz

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?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
