We couldn’t do this without the help of many generous and kind people and organisations. One of these organisations is Project Village (Lagi Finau), who made up some amazing gift packs for lonely and isolated seniors in time for Christmas.

So, on the last working day in December, our CEO Stephen Opie and Social Connection Coordinator Kirsten Blyde spent the day delivering the gift packs all over town. “It was great to spread a little Christmas cheer a couple of days before Christmas. Some even said that this was probably the only gift they would receive,” Stephen said.

Thank you Project Village for caring for our Region’s seniors!

Ryman’s Peace of Mind Guarantees are designed with your protection in mind, giving you the confidence to live the way you want and to embrace every opportunity.

Take Ross for example. He’s a Ryman resident who began his musical journey at the age of 65. His ‘no worries’ lifestyle has meant that ten years later, Ross plays in several bands and tours in different towns playing music on a guitar he made himself. A little certainty provides great reassurance in knowing you can pursue the things you love in retirement, without any worries.

Happy New Year!

With the new year comes resolutions, and getting over fear of public speaking is a recurring goal for many.

In 2022, one of our club goals is to bring you more “meet our member” profiles so we can encourage others to fight their public speaking fears (or even take their public speaking to the next level) and kickstart their toastmasters journeys.

Chairing our next meeting on Sunday 16 Jan 2021 is our ever entertaining and engaging speaker George. George joined Sunday Afternoon Toastmaster in 2018 and continues to come along for ongoing personal development and the supportive evaluations.

Why not pop into 20 Sydney Street, Petone or online via zoom (yes - we’re hybrid) to find out more about Sunday Afternoon Toastmasters?

DM/PM or email us for more details.

Sonali from Wainuiomata

Do you think SNOWPLANET Wellington should be modelled after SNOWPLANET Auckland? Is SNOWPLANET Wellington a good idea for people who don't want to do outdoor snowsports in the mountains like Ruapehu?
