Meet Cath and Shayne!
Welcome back Cath & Shayne 👋🏼 our wonderful Neighbours Day Aotearoa Community Connectors based in Te Matau-a-Māui / Hawkes Bay
This is Cath and Shayne's second year being part of Neighbours Day Aotearoa. Lucky you and lucky us!
"This is a very cool role as we get to help people to connect in the community and that is something we love doing! We just love community and what could be better than connecting and sharing with kai. Who wouldn’t love a pot of jam, a tin of bikkies, or being invited over to someone’s home and getting to know each other around the kitchen table? That’s our happy space." Cath
They look forward to supporting people or organisations in Hawkes Bay to find ways to get involved.
