That’s what the Graeme Dingle Foundation does. Our programmes help young people thrive, develop confidence in who they are to make the most of their precious lives and become positive contributors to our communities.
We are proud to be the official charity of New Zealand Rugby.
Together we’re showing Kiwi Kids that what they have inside is greater than any obstacle.

Big ups to Eddie and co for arranging the sign language courses in Whangarei. I have only been to one lesson so far but Eddie is patient, has a great SOH and is really keen to have other people learn his language (the third official NZ language) and I can see it is going to be a fun-filled 10 weeks… View moreBig ups to Eddie and co for arranging the sign language courses in Whangarei. I have only been to one lesson so far but Eddie is patient, has a great SOH and is really keen to have other people learn his language (the third official NZ language) and I can see it is going to be a fun-filled 10 weeks where we are going to learn the basics at the very least. Thanks have to go out to the team who helped make it so affordable as they are keen for the comminuty to be able to talk to them and to the council for a bit of funding too.
The only thing is, to those doing the course, we might need to organise times to meet up and Practice! Practice! Practice! :-)
A pair of mums who just wanted their sons to have meaningful work are now on a mission to make their coffee cart start-up into a functioning business. What do you think? (Please put NFP if your comments are not for publication.)
A breast cancer patient claims better referral systems are needed after a surgeon "forgot" to book her in for radiation treatment. What do you think? (Please put NFP if your comments are not for publication.)

The roadworks have caused traffic to bunch up causing a continuous line of traffic apart from this guy.
He slows a little causing a gap to happen in front of him, he flashes his lights at those waiting, indicating for them to pull out. The courtesy of this guy (or gal) improves my morning commute no end. This in turn causes me to do a similar thing to those waiting at Loop road, and I often see the people I let out doing the same at Toetoe Rd.
It seems this behaviour is contagious and I strongly applaud Whangarei drivers for this.
Thank you Whangarei drivers for your courtesy and patience.
It takes all of us to protect what we've got but there are a few champions worth celebrating – could this be you?

If you, an organisation or someone you know is putting in the hard yards to protect New Zealand against pests and diseases, it’s time to shine a light on their achievements.
