Opportunity of the week

Hannah Cunningham from Volunteer Marlborough

Would you like to share practical life skills, and support/mentor whanāu?
Consider volunteering as a Korowai Aroha Programme Mentor.
The goal is to build self-confidence by sharing practical knowledge that will enable whanau to learn new skills and make the most of the finances and resources available to them.

We especially need people with experience and skills in:
- Raising tamariki/children
- Running a household
- Cooking and baking
- Growing your own kai/food
- Basic budgeting
- Sewing or other crafts

Our Ideal Volunteers are:
- Empathetic and non-judgemental
- Patient with good communication skills
- Enjoy working with whanau
- Have a good sense of humour.

If you have skills and experience that may enhance the lives of whanau, we would love to hear from you.

Apply online by clicking the read more button below.
Alternatively, send us a message, call 03 577 9388, email vm@volunteermarlborough.org.nz, or book an appointment online via our main Facebook page.⁠

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
