Naturally, you want to share this journey with your beloved furry companion, and at Ryman, you are welcome to bring your pet along, provided they are suitable for the village environment.

Once your pet is approved for the village, the focus shifts to ensuring a smooth transition for them. Dogs and cats, being creatures of habit, may find relocating stressful. However, with patience and a thoughtful approach, we can mitigate their anxiety and help them settle into their new surroundings seamlessly.

This event has been CANCELLED.

New Plymouth Community Foodbank and Waitara Foodbank Pataka Kai work closely together to provide a much-needed service within our communities with this year tracking towards being our busiest year on record with more people reaching out for assistance.

Our annual Christmas food drives were a success in December however due to increasing demand for our services we need to top up the shelves and pay some bills.
So, we are collaborating to raise funds by hosting a charity auction this June, with all proceeds to be utilised within our communities to support people who are experiencing food insecurity.
Donations of quality goods, experiences and services are needed to make this event a success – we would appreciate your support with a donation from your business. If you would like to buy a ticket to the event please check out events.humanitix.com...

On behalf of Waitara Foodbank Pataka Kai and New Plymouth Community Foodbank, ngā mihi nui.
