"This is Cranford, who is the proud "guard cat" of St Paul's Waiwhetu, where he is a familiar face around the church property. He is pictured beside his "Cat cave"- he sleeps in it almost all year round.
He resides at the St Paul's Vicarage; with his four staff- Karl, Mel, Maiah and Poppy. Cranford is also a proud graduate of the SPCA in Wellington."

They grow our people, open minds, open hearts and create joy.
More than 1million people across Aotearoa say they volunteer for an organisation, contributing $4billion to the economy. Much more happens within communities and between people, and increasingly, in different ways.
The landscape of volunteering is changing, in some cases exacerbating the changes we were already seeing, in others creating another shift entirely. Change presents different challenges across the sector, but also highlights unique opportunities for reshaping and improving the practice of volunteering. Volunteering New Zealand continues to develop its expertise in acting as the champion of mahi aroha.
National Volunteer Week 2021 runs from June 20-26. This year’s theme is ‘Recognise, Connect, Reimagine’. Join us this National Volunteer Week to share stories of volunteering, and help reshape mahi aroha for the future.

"I have come such a long way from the scared frightened little kitten found on a farm with my sister. I am now looking for a wonderful home where I can continue learning about this big wide world.
I will be quite worried in a new environment, so I will need an understanding family who is willing to give me the time to adjust. I would benefit from someone being around for parts of the day or another like-minded cat for company. I try to be brave and once I know you, I will really enjoy your company. I will just need time to get to know you. I really love the attention I get from my caregivers, so I know that in time, I will get to really appreciate you too."

Whittaker’s co-chief operating officer, Holly Whittaker, says having more than one filling in a block is a first for Whittaker’s and something a bit different from the way other chocolate flavour combinations are produced.
Recently named the Reader’s Digest Most Trusted Brand for the tenth consecutive year, Whittaker’s also celebrates its 125th anniversary this year. It will be available for a limited time only in supermarkets nationwide from Monday June 21.
Are you going to try it and are there any other flavours you would like to see combined into one block?
