This month we want to challenge Neighbourhood Supporters to come together and give generously from the heart this holiday season. With so much going on this time of year it’s easy to get caught up in the festivities and forget about others, especially those having a difficult time.

Whether it’s an elderly neighbour who lives alone to a family on your street working hard to make ends meet, reach out to someone who could use a little extra joy in their life and remind them what the holiday spirit is all about!

Other ideas include fundraising for a local charity, doing a food or toy drive, organising a ‘Secret Santa’ gift exchange on your street, giving a present to a neighbour who helped to make your 2020 better, or even host a community Christmas lunch.

Let us know how you’re giving back in your community in December by emailing: info@neighbourhoodsupport.co.nz

A Christchurch mum has shed 20kg to run her first marathon and represent the one in 100,000 who can’t.

Libby Carmichael Venning is among the expected 11,000 runners taking part in the Queenstown Marathon on Saturday.

The 49-year-old will be delighted to simply finish the 42km on behalf of her daughter, Sacha, who has the autoimmune disease Myasthenia Gravis (MG).

For those with the condition, like 21-year-old Sacha, activity such as running weakens the muscles.
