During March, we raise funds to enable us to deliver services to the most vulnerable people in our communities. Services such as delivering Meals on Wheels, helping to settle new Kiwi's in Aotearoa New Zealand and training our Disaster Response volunteers to support with rescue and recovery during a disaster.

This year we are doing our appeal a bit differently and we need your help! Unfortunately, due to COVID-19 Traffic Light Red we can’t go ahead with our physical street collection so instead, we are partnering with Chooza to bring you our List, Sell, Give Hope! campaign 👉 www.chooza.com...

It’s easy! You list it, someone else buys it and together you give hope by supporting New Zealand Red Cross. With your help, we can continue to support those most vulnerable in our communities when they need it most!

Richard Falkner, who works in central Wellington, found the soiled Peter Rabbit toy on top of a water tank used as a makeshift bin at Aitken St last week, before taking it home and giving it a clean. Read more here.

Pi Day

Pi Day is on March 14, and any day that combines fun, education, and pie is a day worth celebrating!

Pi, also known by the Greek letter “π,” is a constant value used in math that represents the ratio of a circumference of a circle to its diameter, which is just about 3.14….15…9265359… (and so on). Not only that, but the fourteenth of March is also Albert Einstein’s birthday, so all together it’s nothing short of a mathematician’s delight.

Nestled on leafy Windermere Road, you’ll discover a friendly community at The Bellevue. Marie has experienced it first-hand, telling us, “this is the place I’ve been able to make friends.”

Reflecting on when she first moved to the leafy village, Marie says, “Sarah (Guest Service Manager) got to know me in the first week. I had dinner with her.” Adding with a smile, “The chef here is absolutely marvelous.”

But Marie’s social life isn’t limited to delicious dinner dates; there’s always something happening at The Bellevue. “Sarah gets to know the residents and what they want to do. Everyone is different and has different needs. She’ll arrange things for what we want to do.”

Our Care Suites not only offer both Rest Home and Hospital care but feel like home too, with a living area, kitchenette and ensuite. And Marie couldn’t be happier. “I love my room. I have a little outside patio area. I can boil the jug and make myself a cup of tea and I can entertain friends. I have miles of photos up. I like having lots of photos around me.”

At The Bellevue, Marie has found that feeling many of us are searching for, “I wake up every morning and feel good.”

Diamond Painting Drills

Denise from Yaldhurst

Hi
I have some square drills in various colors from 2 diamond paintings if they can be of any use to anyone rather than going in the bin. The quality was pretty average and were from kits sent from China. So if interested in recycling in some way please message me.
