Believing in the importance of a meaningful farewell as part of healthy grieving forms the basis to all that we do.
We have funerals for many essential reasons, including a means of expressing our beliefs, thoughts, and feelings about life and death. The purposes of the funeral ceremony can be summed up in the following ways:
Reality: It's hard to truly accept the finality of death, but the funeral helps us to begin to do so. At first, we accept it with our heads, and only over time do we come to accept it with our hearts.
Recall: Funerals help us begin to convert our relationship with the person who has died from one of presence to one of memory. When we come together to share our memories, we learn things we didn't know, and we see how the person's life touched others.
Support: Funerals are social gatherings that bring together people who cared about the person who died. Funerals are in remembrance of the person who passed, but they are for the living. The funeral is a special time and place to support one another in grief.
Expression: When we grieve but don't mourn, our sadness can feel unbearable, and our many other emotions can fester inside of us. Mourning helps us heal, and the funeral is an essential rite of initiation for mourning. It helps us get off to a good start and sets our mourning in motion.
Meaning: Did the person I love have a good life? What is life, anyway?
Why Do We Die?: There are no simple explanations, but the funeral gives us a time and a place to hold the questions in our hearts and begin to find our way to answers that give us peace.

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 (16-22 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.

Let's make sure we all arrive alive to where we need to go by following these four simple and proven road safety actions:
- Make sure everyone has their seatbelts on
- Remove distractions and stay focused on driving
- Don’t get behind the wheel if you’ve been drinking or are tired
- Drive at a safe speed for the conditions
With severe and changeable weather forecast for across the country the following winter driving tips are equally important as well.
The only way we can reduce unnecessary road deaths and injuries is by working together to be safe, considerate and alert on the roads. If you spot dangerous driving behaviour or urgent but not life threatening driving incidents you can report it to the New Zealand Police by calling *555 for free from any mobile device.
Have a great long weekend!
