Thank you Wattie's
We want to say a heartfelt thank you to Wattie’s NZ and the 150 schools who took part in this year's Cans for Good campaign. Thanks to the incredible effort of students, teachers and whānau, over 30,000 cans were collected and will make a huge difference to Salvation Army foodbanks around Aotearoa.
Wattie’s generously donated a further 25,000 cans taking the total number collected to over 56,000 cans.

Restoration of Faded or Damaged Photographs
I restore digital images of photos that have been scanned to your PC. I can usually repair faded, out of focus or damaged images whether coloured or black and white. If you are interested, contact me at hendynz@gmail.com and I will give you instructions and a quote on the costs. I will not charge for any photos that can’t be repaired, or you are not satisfied with the result.
Below is an example of a recent restoration of a very faded photo taken of my great grandmother in the late 1800s.
