Mary Potter Hospice is excited to have built Te Whare Rānui , our new Hospice hub in Rānui Heights, Porirua.

We have raised $1,064,688 toward this building, and the main work will be completed soon.

But we need your donations to raise another $100,000 so we can finish the fit-out of this hub.

The development of Te Whare Rānui will enable us to better meet the growing and diverse needs of people in this community facing a life-limiting illness. 

While raising this money this is a big challenge,we know how generous the Porirua community has been for Mary Potter Hospice in the past. 

Please contribute what you can to support Mary Potter Hospice – every donation counts, and we are grateful for all your gifts.

Max is looking for a home.

"I was an unplanned pregnancy and brought to the SPCA to find a home.
I may look like a typical wild rabbit, but I can assure you I am not. My Mum was a domestic rabbit and super sweet. I am good with people I know, and am still young and still learning. I have an inquisitive nature and would love a home with people who will have me around them, either as a solely indoor rabbit, or mostly indoors. I will need a large outdoor area with a weatherproof hutch or shelter for days when the weather is nice. I will need to be inside as part of the family at night, so a hutch or area inside with you is important. I would also like a female rabbit for company, so if you have a lonely rabbit maybe we could be friends?
