Want to help your neighbours celebrate Christmas?
It's been a busy year for Women's Refuge Marlborough, and the team encourage us all to check on our neighbours this silly season.
The Marlborough Express is collecting Kirihimete (Christmas) gifts to make sure women and families seeking help from Women’s Refuge get to have a holiday celebration too.
Bring unwrapped gifts to the office at 58 Arthur St, by December 14.
