More info:
We’re currently looking for volunteers to help with the tours. Volunteers will be stationed at each of the houses (from 8:30am - 4pm) helping with security, car parking, and managing the flow of people visiting.
The tour gives people the opportunity to view 8 beautiful, handpicked homes and gardens.
As a thank you for your time and assistance, you’ll be provided with a copy of the latest NZ House & Garden magazine, and a ticket to visit the rest of the houses on the tour. Volunteers will receive a free full day ticket (on the other day of the tour in Blenheim).
Volunteers must be over 18 years of age.
As the charity partner of the event, the Breast Cancer Foundation NZ receives $220,000 in cash and free advertising, this goes a long way to help Kiwis affected by breast cancer.
