All proceeds will go directly to the Women's Centre, helping them continue their essential services for our community. As you know, The Nelson Women's Centre, Te Whare Āwhina Mō Ngā Wāhine Puawai, is a vital support hub for women and non-binary people in the Nelson Whakatu community. The centre offers affordable counselling, workshops, and a safe space for connection and growth. However, our funding crisis has recently forced us to pause some essential services.
To help us continue providing these crucial resources, local volunteers are organising fundraising events like this one. These initiatives aim to ensure that the centre can keep its doors open and its services accessible to those who need them most. Your support can make a significant impact on the lives of many in our community. Join us in uplifting the women of Nelson Whakatu by supporting this worthy cause!
We hope to see you there!
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

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!

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.
