Give for Justice: SPCA Annual Appeal

SPCA Auckland

The SPCA is the only charity in New Zealand with the legal authority to seize abused or neglected animals and prosecute offenders. This is only possible because compassionate animal lovers throughout the community support their fight for justice.

SPCA Auckland is calling on you to help for their Annual Appeal from 11th to 13th November. Collectors will take to the streets throughout Auckland, volunteering their time to make a difference for animals in need. Will you please donate to rescue, rehabilitate and seek justice for these innocent creatures? You can donate today at spcaannualappeal.org.nz.

Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition

Bob Owens Retirement Village

The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.

For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.

What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
