Riki became a Victim Support volunteer when he went looking for a chance to help people in the community alongside his busy corporate career. Now Riki does a shift each week as a Volunteer Support Worker on the North Shore.

“I read a story about Victim Support and the role they played in the community, and instantly felt a connection to the work they do,” says Riki. “I saw an opportunity to make a difference and not be measured in Key Performance Indicators."

"Victim Support Workers attend incidents or provide support after events that are life changing for the people, whānau, and witnesses involved… I feel honoured that I'm able to help Victim Support to make a difference to people in need."

Since joining in 2018, Riki has helped hundreds of victims to find safety, healing, and justice. Follow the link to hear Riki’s story and learn how you too can support those in need as a volunteer with Victim Support.

This week, we were very happy to host a graduation luncheon for the students, families and friends of the Advanced Level 4 programme and Level 5 Diploma Chefs.

The Diploma chefs achievement comes after nearly TWO years of chopping, preparing and cooking and many tests and assignments and a bunch of hard work plus some serious determination and the privilege of remote cooking through FOUR Lockdowns!

The Advanced Level 4 chefs started in June 2020 and worked through their programme with only THREE lockdowns and remote cooking. Needless to say, we are delighted to be able to award these qualifications after what can only be described as a roller-coasted period.

The menu included Gratinated Snapper with mushroom, spinach with Sauce Hollandaise, Pigeon Bay lamb with corn, polenta, baked cherry tomatoes and basil and Crêpe with raspberry parfait and vanilla cream to finish.
