CAB Pakuranga celebrates its volunteers!
💛 We finally caught up with the last of our volunteers who missed our special Volunteer Week presentation a few weeks ago.
Brenda - second from left - is seen here smiling happily holding her very special recognition certificate. Brenda’s certificate reads “For outstanding support of our Social Team, coordinating and managing Volunteer Social Events and CAB meetings.”
Brenda is flanked by (left) Louise (Pakuranga Manager), (right) Tricia (Admin) and Cat (Life Member)
Each year we present a few certificates to recognise volunteers who have made an outstanding contribution. These get spread around the volunteers from year to year. All of our volunteers are absolute stars! ⭐
Congratulations again to all of our fantastic volunteers! 👏 👏 👏

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Auckland, why are we so excited about a new store? 🚗🛒
I think we’ve all seen the traffic notices and headlines about the new IKEA by now!
So here’s the question: why do we get so excited when a new store opens? Convenience? Curiosity? A reason for a weekend outing? We’d love to hear your thoughts!
