Te Omanga Hospice Street Appeal Volunteers needed
Our Street Day Appeal will be held on Friday 17, Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 May (Upper Hutt Brewtown Market only on Sunday). Can you help the thousands of people supported by Te Omanga Hospice by volunteering to collect donations in the Hutt Valley on one or more days?
If you can help, please fill out our online survey and let us know the day/s you are available to volunteer. www.surveymonkey.com...
Thank you in advance for your support. We will be in touch as soon as possible in May to confirm your location, time of shift, plus any further information. Please diarise the date and time/s you have volunteered for in the meantime.
Be sure to pass this onto your friends and family too!
If you have any questions or would like more information, please contact events@teomanga.org.nz.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
