Have you heard of GrandFriends?
GrandFriends is a little charity that combats big issues like isolation and loneliness.
We are the bridge that brings kiwis together from across the generations. By connecting families with GrandFriends, we provide a long lasting “people” solution to loneliness.
Using our years of experience we match like-minded GrandFriends, extending their support networks, so they can enjoy the special moments, share the load - all the while combating loneliness.
We are looking for awesome individuals or couples who would like to support a local family and act as a "GrandFriend". We have a waiting list of families in your area who would love nothing more than to connect with you.
You are welcome to apply as an individual - or if you wish to apply with your partner (husband/wife/significant other) as something that you can volunteer with together - that is also very much welcome and encouraged.

Octagon Theatre presents 12 ANGRY JURORS - March 6th to 22nd
Come to Octagon Theatre's latest production!
12 ANGRY JURORS
By Sherman L. Sergel
Directed by Tracey Lawson
From March 6th to 22nd at the Octagon Theatre, 13 Aubrey St, Regent.
This is a taught courtroom thriller, where all the evidence has been presented and the jury is now locked away to decide if a young man is guilty of killing his father.
What looks to be an open-and-shut case of murder slowly morphs into a mystery to be solved as a series of clues begin to create doubt amongst some members of the jury.
On top of that, each of the jurors' have their own prejudices about the young man being accused (as well as each other).
The young man swears he's innocent and these 12 strangers have his life in their hands. One thing is certain. No one leaves the room until his fate is sealed.
