I've been retired now for 3 going on 4 years and was a consultant in my working life but I tried a sideline of having a jewelry website on the side. As soon as I retired had an unexpected heart attack and since then the health has not been all that good with one thing and another. We downsized and moved into St Clair Village. I found some stock still that was left over when I shut the website down around 3 years ago. It's good stock ranging from Mens and Ladies Watches to general jewelry. I will attach a pdf with a picture, the number available, and what I was selling at a retail cost (this can be changed to suit your style of selling). I would like to sell the whole portfolio to a "good home" - not a shark but somebody that would be fair to it's clients like I have been. Remember what you put out is what you get in return as the saying goes. Anyway I hope somebody would take up the offer or know of somebody that would. The approx retail in total is about $19,000. I would only like about $1250 ono for the whole lot. If you are interested could you please message me or text me on 0274 456 024. I would really appreciate your help. It's just sitting in our garage. Anyway have a look at the stock and let me know your thoughts. I'm not a person of greed and hopefully it would all go to a like-minded person. Please have a look at the PDF file for details. Thanks for your time

Thanks to all your generous donation, we'd love to gather in thanksgiving and cut the ribbon on our new practice car once we get the green light.
PCDS is turning 4 this December so we'd like to share FANTASTIC 4 community stories on the importance of getting driver licence. Here are the feedback from four learners who chose Puketapapa Community Driving School - knowing that our social enterprise mission is to use the income from fully-paid driving lessons to give subsidised lessons for former refugees especially single mothers facing multiple barriers to getting licence.
Serene: I was able to help my mum during lockdown. My mum is a health worker and she can’t take bus all the time. So it was my duty to drop her to work. Now I can drive alone buy some groceries and stuff. This is a little bit help for my family. Driving was my first step to help my family. Without the driving licence I was dependent on my family. Now I can help them to go anywhere and buy some stuff.
Nina: I’ve been able to help my family more like getting groceries, dropping off my brother and picking up from school. From a personal perspective it has given me a lot of confidence. As a young person, whenever you are with your friends, there is a stigma of you still having your learner’s. I chose to enrol at PCDS as I always thought the social enterprise side of the business is amazing. The buy one and give one for someone with refugee background and struggling to afford a driving lesson was really cool. I really like the fulfilment it gave me that my money would be going towards someone in need and potentially make a difference in their lives.
Jojo: Getting a licence is very helpful while I’m studying in Uni and working. In NZ the public transport is not as good with other countries. Especially for the buses you have to wait, unlike other countries its frequent. Driver licence here is a must.
Cristine: Before I just ride a bus. Sometimes the bus would take a while so it was hard for me especially going home late. Now I’m working as a support worker. I drive a lot going to my clients’ homes. Excellent cause, you are really helping the migrants and refugees to learn to drive.
THANK YOU AGAIN to our champion supporters, and to each and everyone who pitched in to help us get new practice car so we can have more community success stories in 2022!
