This month we’re rolling up our sleeves, putting up our hands, and saying ‘YES’ to giving our time and skills to projects that make Aotearoa a better place to live.

As a mostly volunteer-led organisation, our members know first hand the value and impact that a single volunteer can make in our communities. Imagine then how much can be achieved when several volunteers or even an entire street or neighbourhood decide to work together to achieve the same goal!
Whether you plan to coordinate your own volunteer driven activity, take part in one that’s already been setup, participate in National Volunteer Week (20-26 June), or simply show your own volunteers some extra love this month, know that every bit of effort to give back is a priceless investment in all of our futures.
Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re getting involved this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to:

Dear neighbours,
It's taken seven years, but it was worth the wait. Have you tried them?

"A visit to Silverstream yesterday afternoon to see if I could find some kingfishers and I was rewarded by the sight of several of them on powerlines, swooping down to grab tasty morsels, but couldn't get close enough to any of them to get decent shots so these photos are heavily cropped. At one point a kingfisher was sharing his line with a huge group of Starlings! I loved watching the two magpies displaying teamwork when tearing at a clump of grasses! As I walked through St Pats, the sparrows were enjoying a dustbath!"

"I am super sweet and thanks to my amazing foster family, I am used to dogs, cats and children.
I will need to be adopted to a home with an existing female rabbit, so if you have a lonely rabbit, maybe we could be friends. I will need a weather-proof hutch, with a run for day time. At night, I will need a space inside your home. it can be a room, or a hutch, but some where I can spend time with the family.
If this sounds like your set up, please be in touch with my care givers to make an appointment to meet me."
Thank you, Aotearoa.
