Could you be a NZ House & Garden Tours volunteer?

Talia from Pink Caravan Education & Awareness - South Island

Breast Cancer Foundation NZ is so excited to be the charity partner of the NZ House & Garden Tours 2023.
To make the tours a success, we need wonderful volunteers to be stationed at each of the houses, checking tickets and working alongside staff to keep the houses safe.

Dates:
Wānaka - Friday 24 & Saturday 25 February
Nelson - Friday 10 & Saturday 11 March

There are three shifts available: Morning (8.30am to 12.30pm), Afternoon (12.15pm to 4.15pm) or All Day (8.30am to 4.15pm).

Volunteers will spend their shift at one of the incredible homes on the tour, be given a 10% discount on your tour ticket, and a goodie bag from the tour sponsors.

We're also looking for House Supervisors! Responsible for looking after the team of volunteers at the house they're stationed at, they're also the point of contact at an assigned house. House Supervisors meet the homeowners the Thursday prior to the tour to go over important health and safety information.

If you're interested in being a NZ House & Garden Tours volunteer, register now!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
