National Volunteer Week "Thank you" to all CAB Christchurch volunteers
CAB Christchurch has over 100 Volunteers currently giving up their valuable time to make a difference for others.
Sunday 17 to Saturday 23 June 2018 is NZ National Volunteer Week, which celebrates the 1.2 million Kiwis who volunteer in our communities every year. The theme for this year is "Volunteers, The Heart of our Community – By many, the work will be completed, Mā tini, mā mano, ka rapa te whai", which captures the essence of the volunteering spirit and the essential link between volunteers and the communities who benefit from their generosity.
Scott Miller, Chief Executive of Volunteering NZ says: “Communities big and small, throughout the country rely on the goodwill and passion that Kiwis have for their communities”. The theme for National Volunteer Week 2018 highlights the human side of volunteering, showing people not only is volunteering good, it’s good for you and your community.
Quote: 'When you volunteer, you vote every day for the kind of society you want to live in' - Marjorie Moore.
Thank you to all the CAB Christchurch volunteers for being the heart of our community.
What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
Cats Still Missing - NEW TO AREA - Please keep sharing
Please help us find Sid and Dizzy. Missing since 10th November around Leander Street, Northcote. They snuck away after a stressful move into town, and so will likely be confused and a bit timid.
If found please contact Barbara Johnstone on 027 441 5594
We are particularly worried about Dizzy (black & white) he is older mainly a house cat and is VERY deaf : there were possible sightings of him on Joiners Ln (near Vagues Rd) not long after they went missing, but he's not been spotted since.
Please keep a look out for him. Thanks to everyone for your support.
