Two volunteers celebrated for 25 years of service to Franklin Hospice
Two women who have given a quarter of a century to helping others were celebrated for their work this week.
Gael Coles and Shirley Roberts have been volunteering for Franklin Hospice for 25 years.
They have done a myriad of jobs over the years - sorting and serving in the second hand shop, assisting at events, organising Trees of Remembrance at the supermarkets to help run patient and caregiver support groups, and providing respite care to patients and families - and much more.
These days, Gael and Shirley are most often based at the Pukekohe Hospice shop on King Street in Pukekohe.
If you are interested in helping out at Franklin Hospice, please call 09 2389376.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
