Renwick Film Festival
The Renwick Winter Film Festival will run again over three weeks in June, when each Thursday evening a series of short films plus a feature will screen in the Renwick Church Hall on High Street. Veteran filmmaker Paul Davidson has curated the festival, which he says will be of much interest and enjoyment for Marlborough audiences. Every film is either about Marlborough, or is made by Marlborough filmmakers.
The Festival kicks off of June 15 with the 40th anniversary screening of that classic Marlborough comedy “Carry Me Back”. Three Seddon farmers head to the Capital in support of the Red Devil’s shield challenge – and things don’t go as planned. The film’s producer, Graeme Cowley, has given permission for this special screening and will be in attendance to introduce his film and explain the background.
June 15th, 22nd, 29th

Volunteer required - Meals on Wheels drivers required
Want to make a difference in Blenheim. New Zealand Red Cross urgently needs volunteers to help deliver Meals on Wheels, and would love to have your help!
The Meals on Wheels service delivers nutritious meals to people living at home who aren’t able to cook for themselves because of health problems, disability or age. It's more than just delivering food – it paves the way for friendship and companionship for people who are often isolated and vulnerable. [Red Cross volunteers deliver Meals on Wheels in 33 locations across Aotearoa New Zealand]. The role involves picking up meals from a set location and then delivering it to people at lunchtime and having a brief chat at the door. If you’re friendly and caring, have a driver’s license and your own vehicle, and can give at least two hours of your time to do a weekday delivery each month, this volunteer role is for you!
