Mothers In Need
Hi Neighbours,
We desperately need your help and even if you can not help us you could share this so that it reaches someone who can!
We have had a huge influx in families this week and as a result our normal donated supplies are not meeting this demand.
over the next 2 weeks we need to source.
* 18 bassinets
* 19 capsules
* 8 convertible car seats
* 12 baby baths
* 25 single prams
* 8 double prams.
We are asking if you have any of these items as home to give them a little clean up and then bring them down to us at 6/42 henderson valley road otherwise, we can arrange for a pick up. If you are able to take the time to wipe them down and clean then up then it means they can go straight out to a family and possibly even on the same day! Thank you so much in advance.

Smoke in Mt Wellington
Smoke has been seen coming from the crater of the Auckland maunga Mt Wellington.
Images of the smoke began appearing on social media on Friday afternoon.
Around 1.45pm, Fire and Emergency (Fenz) shift manager Josh Pennefather told the NZ Herald a crew was fighting a fire of about 60 square metres in size.
”It’s spreading up hill … [but] there’s no property at risk at this stage,” Pennefather said.
Six fire trucks were in attendance working to contain a grass fire that's spreading up the maunga.
A helicopter was on its way to assist firefighting efforts, he added.
At 2pm, Pennefather shared that the fire was contained and they were working to extinguish it, including “keeping an eye on a whole bunch of hot spots“.
