The Must-Give Christmas Gift!
Meeting an ever-increasing need in our communities, Christmas Box provides more than just food in a time of need, it also brings a reminder that there is a community of people who care.
We believe by alleviating some of the pressure that families feel at Christmas time through our food parcels, it will create a lasting impact that goes beyond a treat at Christmas.
For only $40 you can donate a Christmas Box to a family in need, providing not just practical help, but much deserved hope too.
'Write for Rights', Saturday 7 December from 2.00 to 4.30pm
'Write for Rights' is timed to celebrate Human Rights Day on 10 December. This is the world’s biggest human rights event, a moment when Amnesty International’s movement of ten million comes together as one to take action and stand up for freedom, justice and equality.
Collective action pressures authorities around the world to bring those responsible for human rights abuses to justice, and free people wrongfully imprisoned.
We'll be gathering as we do every year, to write letters and send messages of support to victims of human rights abuses around the world.
Venue: Friends Meeting House, 30 Nile St, Nelson.
Date: Saturday 7 December, from 2 to 4.30pm
Please bring a small contribution for a shared afternoon tea. Tea and coffee will be provided.
Please encourage others concerned about human rights issues to come - all welcome!
RSVP: to Karen du Fresne, Amnesty International Planning Committee Email: kdufresne8@gmail.com by Monday 2 December.

Small grey rabbit found
A small grey rabbit seems to be living at our place quite a bit in Coleridge place. We have been unable to catch it but it leaves plenty of evidence around that it's here. 2 children recently enquired about their lost rabbit but have lost their details.
Please contact if you have lost a rabbit
