Thank you Clendon Whanau
We think these 120 wonderful volunteers deserve a little special recognition for the beautification they did last weekend!
3 hours of their Saturday morning was donated back to the community - this adds up to a total of 360 free community service hours!
Together we swept & picked up litter, washed windows, painted benches, trimmed hedges, planted a tree & many plants in bare spots and collected 6 x 240L (=1440L) wheelie bins full of loose litter and approximately 600kg of waste in black bags, which was very efficiently disposed of by the Civic contractors & Citycare Property team.
We would like to acknowledge each and every one of the wonderful volunteers who participated as well as the many volunteers groups. We had representatives from Clendon Business Association Ambassador Team, Citycare Property & Civic Contractors Team, The Pride Project Team, Manurewa Bluelight BBQ & Bluelight JAM Crew Chefs, Kainga Ora Team, Downer Team, Raise-up Youth Crew, What Hope Team, 180 Youth Project – Crossroad Ministries Team, Student Volunteer Army, AIGA Energy Team and the Manurewa Youth Council Team. It was just amazing to be part of such generous collaboration!
We are still buzzing - thank you Clendon!

Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble
Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.
This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
