I will also add vouchers and gift cards for the family to get them through the Christmas period. If you would like to help out, brilliant. If not, that's ok maybe you have someone you know that you could be a secret Santa to. Merry Christmas.

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. 😀

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.
