With so much going on this time of year it’s easy to get caught up in the festivities and forget about those having a difficult time.
From elderly neighbours with no one to celebrate with to homeless families and those with disabilities struggling to just get by, reach out to someone who could use a helping hand and remind them what the holiday spirit is all about!

Keep your eyes peeled for the latest scam to be fooling Kiwis. Scammers are taking advantage of people looking for a home to call their own, creating fake competitions and giveaways to win a tiny home.
A recent scam asked people to sign up on their page which went through a process of multiple surveys so the scammers can collect more information about the Facebook user in the hope of collecting personal details, including bank accounts. To read all about the scam, click here.
A fraud education manager says:
- People are helping the scammers by liking and sharing the post as it spreads the virus
- As soon as you like the Facebook post it gives scammers access to information
- If unsure whether it's a scam or not, look for terms and conditions - often these scams do not have them
- If you think you've been made a victim of an online scam, contact Netsafe and report it immediately. You can access Netsafe's page here.

These are words Rebecca penned in respect of her journey to find family. On Tuesday night we will see her story as seen through the programme
Who Do You Think You Are which was first aired in July 2014. This includes Rebecca’s travels to Parihaka and her rendition of Amazing Grace.
Come along and watch this fantastic story. As well as this, we will be having a special supper and an extra special raffle – a Christmas Hamper, so come along, buy lots of raffle tickets – some one has to win this lovely prize – tickets $1 as usual.
