Are you a retired tradie? Can you help the younger generation?

The Mangere-based Ara Education Charitable Trust is inviting volunteers to share skills and knowledge on a one-off, or an ongoing, basis. Retired tradespeople could help by working with the students, says John Vazey, senior health, safety and wellbeing business partner at Auckland Airport.

Students are working on a number of projects, including the Forever House, transforming it from a derelict house into a sustainable low-cost home to be returned to the community. Volunteers will work alongside AECT tutors and the students in classroom and hands-on projects.

Do you want to pass on some of your skills and knowledge? Get in touch with the team by emailing editor@foreverproject.co.nz

Looking for free microwave for an old neighbour

Markus from Green Bay

I have an old neighbour in her mid 70s (and with health problems, eg she can only use one arm) on a very small pension.

After Xmas I was shocked to hear that she was basically living on Chinese Noodles all the time - especially as I had just eaten a large portion of leftover ham from another neighbour (and felt quite guilty about that). Since then I'm looking after her a bit and started to bring round dinner and leftovers occasionally (I'm not exactly rich myself, but if the small guys don't help each other out …). The problem is that heating up leftovers is difficult for her with just one usable arm - so I'm looking for a free microwave for her. If anyone has one then I would appreciate if she could have it. Thanks. Markus
