Accredited Visiting Service Hawkes Bay

AGE CONCERN NAPIER is looking to recruit volunteer visitors for their Accredited Home Visiting Service (AVS) throughout the Hawkes Bay region. This is a befriending service for people over the age of 65, and is aimed at reducing social isolation and loneliness amongst older people. Having a visitor can make a real difference to the health and happiness of an older person. Our visitors provide regular visits of about an hour per week, share interests and activities with clients, and bring a little sunshine into their lives.

If you would like to become part of our wonderful team of volunteers please contact us for further details. We would love to hear from you.

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
