Is there actually a good Butcher around here that makes his own sausage with proper skins as opposed to that plastic. All the sausages I've brought from butchers around here have been abysmal 60% breadcrumb rubbish but maybe I've missed the good Butcher. Any suggestions, please let me know.

Do you want help to harvest and donate some food to your neighbours and/or local food banks? Do you want to get to know your neighbours and help them harvest any excess food from their own properties? If you answer "yes" to any of these questions then please contact us at:ourfoodnetwork@gmail.com
Our "Ideas into Action Facilitator" (Niki Bould) is busy gathering names and addresses for our database so we can organise volunteers in each neighbourhood to harvest as much food as possible so it doesn't go to waste. We will be running some volunteer workshops soon (on how to make "apple-pickers", how to identify diseases in fruit, and providing some health and safety info) and hope this is a great way for neighbours to meet each other.

Friday, 19 May
Where: St David Seminar Room 3
When: 5:30pm - 7:00pm

Shakti New Zealand was set up by women from Asian, African and Middle Eastern communities in 1995. Since its inception, women from these communities have worked tirelessly to create an environment that was empowering for women. They worked to create an environment where women could escape domestic violence and be supported in a non-judgmental way, strengthening them to build new future for themselves and their children.

The main activities involved capacity-building in partnership with local NGOs towards empowerment, advocating for suitable legislation for women and enabling establishment of refuge services. In 2017 funding for Shakti Wellington Refuge was categorically declined by the Ministry of Social Development despite this needs analysis.

In this talk, Ambika Kohli, Shakti Dunedin Coordinator, talks about the importance of access to life-saving culturally appropriate support services for migrant women. She address the issues of violence among the ethnic communities in New Zealand and will highlight the differences between cultural practices and cultural violence. In her presentation. Ambika will touch on burning issues such as female foeticide, female genital mutilation, dowry and forced marriages.
