Did you know that about half of Aotearoa volunteers in some way? ⁠
We often think of volunteering in a very formal way, including only the types of volunteering that involve signing up with a charitable organisation. However, when the definition of volunteering is expanded to include informal volunteering as well, and including short-term and one-off volunteering, rates of participation are significantly higher! ⁠
According to @volunteeringnz, of those aged 15 years or older, 49.8% have engaged in some sort of formal and/or informal volunteer work in the last month!

If you'd like to join in and boost this statistic even more, go to our website, call 03 577 9388, or email vm@volunteermarlborough.org.nz

It’s a time for fine-tuning your skills and pushing the boundaries, catching up with your mates and heading off on new adventures at the drop of a hat! No, we’re not talking about your 20s, we’re talking about your retirement.

Ross’ retirement saw the beginning of his musical journey where his passion quickly evolved from making music, to crafting guitars. It all started when Ross and some mates joined a music group where the camaraderie and togetherness were just as important as the music.

Living in a Ryman village, Ross can continue living life to the full in his retirement because they are places where you don’t retire from life, you find a new way to live .
