Companion Walking Service
We provide companionship to people over 65 who would like a regular visit from a friendly volunteer. We aim to match people with volunteers who live in the same area and have similar interests. Clients enjoy the benefits of walking and being outside, seeing what is going on in their community. They also visit other places like the Botanical Gardens and parks close by with flat areas to walk.

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
Moe mai rā, Nicholas.
