To help keep kids warm and well this winter, Wellington Hospitals Foundation has launched its annual Jammies in June Appeal.
Respiratory conditions are a leading cause of acute admissions to hospital for children and Wellington Regional Children’s Hospital sees a significant increase in the number of children who are admitted over the winter months - many of them arriving without a pair of pyjamas.
Please donate a pair of brand NEW, size 1-16 flannelette pyjamas or thermals.
Please make sure that all pyjamas meet NZ product safety standards and carry the fire safety certification.
Due to the risk of infection, only new pyjamas can be accepted.

Or make a donation online at www.whf.org.nz... and Wellington Hospitals Foundation will buy a pair on your behalf.

New pyjamas can be dropped in to receptions at: Wellington Regional Hospital, Kenepuru Hospital, and Kapiti Health Centre. Or posted to: Wellington Hospitals Foundation, Wellington Hospital Private Bag 7902, Wellington 6242

This month we’re rolling up our sleeves, putting up our hands, and saying ‘YES’ to giving our time and skills to projects that make Aotearoa a better place to live.

As a mostly volunteer-led organisation, our members know first hand the value and impact that a single volunteer can make in our communities. Imagine then how much can be achieved when several volunteers or even an entire street or neighbourhood decide to work together to achieve the same goal!

Whether you plan to coordinate your own volunteer driven activity, take part in one that’s already been setup, participate in National Volunteer Week (20-26 June), or simply show your own volunteers some extra love this month, know that every bit of effort to give back is a priceless investment in all of our futures.

Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re getting involved this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to:

This year’s Wellington on a Plate food festival is being billed as a chance to travel around the world and back in time.
The theme, Out of Place, was chosen by festival organisers to give the capital’s eateries inspiration for the month-long event which will take place in August. The organisers hope the restaurants will transport their guests to far-flung destinations with their international offerings.
Diners will also be able to go back in time. Daisy’s is set to celebrate Aunt Daisy, the well-known radio personalty who has been called New Zealand’s first foodie. Rita’s has been inspired by the dinners of early Pākehā settlers with their event Colonial Goose.
Katherine Mansfield’s childhood home will host guests, as will the Interislander, with restaurant Shepherd hosting a multi-course meal onboard the Kaitaki to recreate the golden age of travel.
