Birthday for the Horses!
Woohoo! It is that time of year again! When we give our horses who have worked hard all year, helping those many children and adults who have mobility and coordination problems to build their strengths and confidence, are given a treat.
Yes! They have a birhday cake, one for each of them, and they love it!
Come on down and see them on Saturday 4 August from about 10:00 am, they will put on a display of their work with some willing volunteers. A lot of fun is had by all. If you don't know where the RDA is located, it is at the top of the Brook Valley on Tantragee Road. Kids will love meeting the horses. Mark it on your calendar now!!!
If you are too busy but would like to give them a birthday present, then you can donate through our givealittle site.
It will be a lovely day and we hope to see you there!
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
58.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
16% ... It is complicated

Earth Emotions Silent Auction
Monday 16th February - Monday 2nd March
Bid on a special collection of 20 unframed prints by local photographers from an exhibition called Earth Emotions.
Glenn Allbrecht's book, Earth Emotions, inspired Ann Wheatley, Emma Jane Hughes and Peter Kemp to create a local exhibition exploring the health of our soils, waters, forests, and people, with support from the Nelson Tasman Climate Forum and the Nelson City Council.
Forty-seven photographers responded to an open call, contributing over 100 images. A selection of these was exhibited at the Refinery Art Space.
The photographers have donated 20 exhibition prints to raise funds for the hospice.
