Mercy Hospice welcomes new Volunteer Coordinators

The Team from Mercy Hospice Auckland

Volunteers are the life blood of Mercy Hospice. We offer a variety of different volunteering opportunities and would love to hear from you if you can commit to our truly amazing organisation.

Your valuable volunteering time may be donated to a retail shop, patient companionship (inpatient unit or in the community), transport to appointments for patients, fundraising at special events, in-house functions, beauty (manicures, pedicures, hairdressing, facials) or helping with the tea and drinks trolleys for our inpatient unit.

You may choose from permanent volunteer placements, relief or casual volunteering. Assistance is especially needed over the holiday season and weekends. With nine retail shops around the Auckland central area, opening either six or seven days a week, we are always on the lookout for willing retail volunteers. Shifts are either morning or afternoon and we welcome volunteers to apply by contacting:

● Retail and Fundraising: Sue Campin 09-376-7574 or scampin@mh.org.nz
● Patient Care Services: Nix Johnson 09-376-7567 or njohnson@mh.org.nz

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
