Companion Walking – Volunteers Needed
We’re reaching out to the local communities around Porirua and Mana as we have a number of older people in the area needing a companion to walk with.
We’d love to hear from you if you:
• Enjoy walking, fresh air & companionship
• Can spare one or two daytime hours each week
• Have a genuine empathy with older people
• Are keen to make a real difference to the lives of others
For more details about our Companion Walking Service or to sign up to become a volunteer, please visit our website: www.acwellington.org.nz...
Or call 04 499 6646 or email cws@acwellington.org.nz
Our team are looking forward to hearing from you.
Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?
Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.
Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.
So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?

Poll: Does grocery bagging affect where you shop?
There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.
Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.
