Thanks for an amazing week!
As part of National Volunteer Week #NVW2017 we have been profiling the work of some of our fabulous volunteers. To wrap up an amazing week, today we share some the comments we have received from members of the Taupo community about our volunteers. Thank you everyone for your lovely feedback. It’s great to know our volunteers are valued by everyone!
They make the world a better place! Thank you
Hospice makes money to help people – they are great ladies!
All their precious time is dedicated free of charge to serve the community with precision and utmost care. “Awesome”
They make my day every Wednesday I visit and shop, laugh and leave with a smile!
Everybody really has a smile on their face and so lovely.
Thank you volunteers!
They are priceless!
Because they aren’t paid to smile so their smiles are genuine!
Taupo would be lost without such volunteers. “They rock”
Without volunteers this would not happen. Caring is sharing!
Lovely people like this. Lovely shop. Best shop in the world.
Appreciate you all. Where would we be if no one loved?
You do an awesome job!
They are selfless!
What a wonderful contribution to our community!

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
