How can I help - after Christchurch

Jean Harding from English Language Partners West Auckland

Hi Neighbours

Many people are asking how they can help our Muslim neighbours to show solidarity after the horrendous events in Christchurch. One answer could be to train with us to volunteer to teach English to refugees in their homes. It is not just English - you may teach someone how to talk to their children's teachers, or how to catch a bus, or make an appointment. There is a huge need in West Auckland. Please check our website www.englishlanguage.org.nz... or call on 8277882.
