The Salvation Army's annual Christmas Appeal, "Give A Little Joy This Christmas," is crucial this year due to rising hardship.

Over one in five Kiwi children face food insecurity, with the situation worse for Māori and Pacific families. Rising unemployment and the cost of living crisis are pushing more people into need, but donations and government support are dwindling.

Despite this, The Salvation Army continues to provide vital services, including food, counselling, and lifestyle programmes. Donations, no matter the size, bring long-term change to families, ensuring joy this Christmas and beyond.

Hundreds of Kiwi children will receive something special this Christmas thanks to Ryman Healthcare’s support of the Catalytic Foundation’s Christmas Shoebox Project.

Instead of giving individual gifts to residents, the idea was to redirect those funds to support struggling New Zealand families having to cut back on essentials.

Ryman residents were overwhelmingly in support of the idea, with many volunteering to help choose the gifts to fill over 1000 shoeboxes with thoughtful items.

Safety Alert - Maybe??

Kevin from Casebrook

Please excuse my paranoia as I may easily be overreacting. However something happened this afternoon that hasn’t happened before and given the increased levels of robberies etc that occur at this time I thought it reasonable to alert you all.

We live down a back section in Regents Park. Mid afternoon a well dressed woman knocked on our door. I enquired how I could help and she said she was here to collect some candles. I asked her what address and she gave our address. I asked her who she was collecting them from. There was a vague answer that she didn’t know who. She said the person said it was from Casebrook and that they were making candles. She then quietly walked away. Too late I thought about following her down the drive to see what she did next.

As I said in may be paranoid or overreacting or not but the general vagueness and uncertainty had a sense of her casing our area. Has anyone else experienced this? Be safe. 😀
