Treasurer for Women's Health Trust needed
Hello everyone. Our newly-formed Hawke's Bay Charitable Women's Health Trust is seeking a new treasurer. Comprised of four local women foundation members including a clinical advisor, Rose Gold Trust is focused on delivering positive health outcomes for Hawke's Bay women, particularly in the menopause and midlife space. We're hoping you or your networks may know someone with experience as a treasurer and ideally (but not essentially) having had governance experience. We meet via Zoom once a month and actively work on fundraising events and proposals. Like every trustee, this would be a volunteer position. But it's a great cause and we'd love to know if anyone is keen to join us! Please reply or email me in confidence yvonne@yvonnelorkin.com
Worst Xmas ever?
There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.

Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition
The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.
For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.
What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
