Help with groceries - and a volunteering opportunity
Since the beginning of the nationwide lockdown, I have received occasional requests from people unable to get groceries and have tried to assist them.
Now there is a much better service. The Student Volunteer Army, which originated in Christchurch after the earthquakes, has swung into action and assembled an excellent service operating out of Remuera New World.
If you need help, you can phone them on 0800 005 902. You can order and pay by debit or credit card and a properly vetted volunteer will deliver your groceries to your door.
And if you’d like to help, you can become a volunteer by visiting the www.sva.org.nz... website.
I have spoken to the SVA organisers and highly recommend this service and volunteer opportunity for our community.
As always, my office and I remain available to provide assistance in dealing with government agencies. You can reach us on 09 522 7464 or at mpepsom@parliament.govt.nz. Please do not hesitate to get in touch.
