Please share an ANZAC story with us Nelson, Marlborough and Tasman...
Dear Nelson, Marlborough and Tasman - ANZAC Day will look a little different for us this year - however there are many ways for you to acknowledge the incredible men and women who have served our communities and given their lives for our country.
We invite you to share a memory or photo to commemorate this special day on Neighbourly below. It could be a story of a member in your family who served - or perhaps the way you and your family celebrate ANZAC Day each year. (It might even be a photo of your freshly baked can't be-beaten ANZAC cookies).
We also invite you to take part in Stand at Dawn and join us at 6:00 am on Saturday 25 April. Stand at your letterbox, at the front door, in your lounge rooms, balconies, in your driveway. Wherever you are in the world, stand with us and take a moment to remember our fallen – but please stay within your ‘bubble’.
'Write for Rights' day on Saturday 7 December
Amnesty International’s movement of ten million celebrates the world’s biggest human rights event on Human Rights Day on 10 December. New Zealanders will take action to stand up for freedom, justice and equality through its 'Write for Rights' day on Saturday 7 December.
Date: Saturday 7 December
Time 2.00 - 4.30pm
Venue: Friends Meeting House, 30 Nile St, Nelson.
Our collective action pressures authorities around the world to bring those responsible for human rights abuses to justice, and to free people wrongfully imprisoned. Here in Nelson our annual gathering to write letters and send messages of support to victims of human rights abuses around the world will take place at the Friends Meeting House on Saturday 7 December.
Please bring a small contribution for a shared afternoon tea. Tea and coffee will be provided.
And please encourage others concerned about human rights issues to come too - all are welcome!
