The good news is, keeping up to date with the Covid vaccine can help protect you from serious illness. It’s free and recommended for you and many others as long as you haven’t had the vaccine, or Covid, in the last 6 months.
To book your vaccination, go to BookMyVaccine.nz or talk to your healthcare provider.
St John as most of us know are responsible for our ambulance service, however they are so much more than that; and this week we are focusing on a service that no many of us know about – I certainly did not know until talking with Rebecca and learnt about the Caring Callers.

A caring kōrero (chat) can make a difference.
Caring Caller is a free service where friendly volunteers call lonely people for a catch up, helping them feel less alone. For whānau and friends who do not live close by, this provides comfort that their loved one has support and friendship.
Caring Caller is a programme led by volunteers who offer friendship to individuals with various health and wellbeing needs. There are standards in place to make sure everyone stays safe, and the aim is always to help people in a way that suits them best.
Are there criteria?
Time is the most important thing; this could be just 15min a call or longer if you are finding you are both engaged in conversations.
As part of this service a regular call to your client and at least 12 months to build a genuine connection with the person you are calling
Good communication and caring nature
An appreciation for different cultures will also help you.
You will need to be a NZ Citizen or have a valid NZ work or residence visa
All volunteers are required to have a Police check
As a Caring Caller what will you do?
You can make someone’s day with a friendly korero / chat. Locally St John are looking for people who can give time and make lasting friendships. They make it easier by matching you with someone that has similar interests to you.
As part of this you:
Call on agreed days for a good chat and be a friendly voice
Provide an important community service, to people who need it.
You may even build a lasting friendship with the person you call (this happens often)
Is there training and support?
Yes there is ongoing guidance training and support for all Caring Callers
Where can you learn more?
If you are interested to learn more about the work of St John Caring Callers programme, listen to Volly Voices on Access Radio 104.4fm on Sunday July 21st, at 2pm when Rebecca chats about what is happening at St John and how they support the community and what is involved.

"Baby Bowen" focusses on the fascia (the connective tissue in the body) and can influence many issues positively:
✔For when your baby is not thriving as you know it should.
✔For when they appear to be uncomfortable
✔For when they don’t want to be touched in certain areas (head, neck or hips)
✔For when they struggle with reflux, spilling or vomiting
✔For when they seem to be unable to settle easily
Some need only one session, some may need a few.
If you feel your baby is struggling, Bowen might be an option to try. Feel free to reach out to discuss their specific issue(s) or to book.
