Have you received amazing hospital care?

You can say THANK YOU in your own special way, like Paul.

Grateful Auckland DHB stroke patient Paul Harvey chooses to fundraise for Auckland City Hospital’s stroke rehabilitation ward to help future patients receive the best possible care, and thank the dedicated team that gave him back his independence.

Paul was determined to turn his stroke into something positive: “I’ve found my cause, and I intend to keep working to help those who were vital in my recovery.”

If you’ve received amazing care through Auckland DHB and want to say ‘thank you’, you can donate, share your story or fundraise, like Paul.

Paul works with the Auckland Health Foundation, the official charity for Auckland DHB’s adult health services, to make his fundraising goals a reality – and make a difference. And you can too.

Donate now or be inspired by Paul to say ‘thank you’ in your own special way here.

Switch to LEDs for the climate

Andrew Caseley from Gen Less

Kahutara Primary School in Featherston is switching to LEDs. All LEDs are Gen Less bulbs as they use less energy, which ultimately helps halt climate change. If we all got on board and switched now it would make a huge difference

A Token Of Time

Andrea from Eden Terrace

A Token of time
May be recorded in the squiggle of a line
The emphasis on the word
The slope of the letter

A Token of time
Is no more than the paper or note
On which the word is written

A Token of time
May be recorded in the squiggle of a line
The emphasis on the word
The slope of the letter

A Token of time
Is no more than the paper or note
On which the word is written
And the eye and ear define it to be

A Token of time
Is spent the same in minutes or hours
The hand on a clock does not do justice
What the moment brings to the user

Time is Only Appreciated When Measured In Tokens Of Moments
Poetry by Andrea
