Generous koha from the Feilding public for voluntary work completed at the cafe during 2023 enabled this donation.

Rose Wingate nominated Manchester Street School because 'she loves their chickens and butterfly garden'. This initiative will continue at our pop up events in 2024.
Poll: Have you ever been bullied?
People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.
This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.
