For our third year running, Splice will once again be hitting the main street of the city centre neighbourhood handing out 5000x “Little Pots of Kindness” (honey) and a kindness card, encouraging the contagious nature of kindness. Members of The Auckland Street Choir will be on hand for a little joyously kind singing too.
A number of cafes around the city centre will be surprising their customers with a free coffee and local supermarket, New World Metro on Queen St are coming to the kindness party too. In addition to some in-store acts of kindness, New World Metro’s coffee kiosk will be delivering coffees for a gold coin donation. These donations will go toward the Community Fridge at Griffiths Gardens (Wellesley St West), the fridge that helps feed streeties and others in need.
The above activities will be occurring from 8am onward Friday 31 August 2018 heralding Random Acts of Kindness Day 1 September on Saturday.

What do you call six women stranded on a mountain in the rain: ridiculous! Or you could call them social climbers … but just not to their faces! Once at the hut, not only do they unload their packs full of food, wine, and a souvenir rock; their hang-ups get unloaded as well.
Torrential rain … View moreWhat do you call six women stranded on a mountain in the rain: ridiculous! Or you could call them social climbers … but just not to their faces! Once at the hut, not only do they unload their packs full of food, wine, and a souvenir rock; their hang-ups get unloaded as well.
Torrential rain and a flooded bridge keep them stranded for three days. What they get up to, to help pass the time, raises a few eyebrows and will have you laughing, tearing up and applauding enthusiastically as they bare all.
Of course, it’s not just souls that are exposed, there’s a little nudity, a cracking thunderstorm, explosions, screaming bloody murder, ghostly stories, a birthday celebration, a séance, a drunken party, confessions, meltdowns and revelations that will keep you and your friends entertained throughout.
Perfectly timed for your own social group’s ascent into summer, don’t miss this hilarious play when it comes to a town near you in November.

Get your bikes and walking shoes ready - you'll soon be able to use them to cross the Auckland Harbour bridge!
The Government has announced it will fund and build the proposed pedestrian and cycleway, however can not yet say when.
So, what are your thoughts on the link between the Shore and the city? Will it make your commute easier in the mornings? Or do you think the money should be better spent elsewhere in Auckland? Let us know in the replies!

Izabella was born profoundly deaf and in the four years following her diagnosis, her parents' emotions of shock, being scared and overwhelmed have turned to amazement, surprise and hope - all thanks to Izabella's progress as a hearing and speaking child.
Izabella loves to sing and dance, she enjoys gymnastics, bike rides and playing with her older brothers. What are her superpowers I hear you ask? She's fierce, adventurous and caring!
Register to fundraise and help deaf children like Izabella listen and speak. You can also donate here on Givealittle. Thanks for your support!

A new budgeting service now operates from the Citizens Advice Bureau in Helensville.
Visitors can book an appointment with an experienced budgeter who has spent 22 years in the fields of consumer affairs and employment issues plus working in finance and mediation.
The service adds to the traditional information supplied in Helensville and across the network of New Zealand CABs.
Karen Rutherford, CAB Helensville office manager, says this is a great boost to what volunteers currently offer.
“Experience shows us that the skills coming on board with this new initiative will be sought after and appreciated.”
“The benefit to the wider community will be a greater degree of public awareness about the difference sensible budgeting can make to families or individuals- on low incomes in particular.”
The Helensville CAB is always on the lookout for volunteers wanting to give a little of their time and expertise to their community. Full training is given and a friendly team atmosphere is assured. Contact Karen Rutherford by email manager.helensville@cab.org.nz or phone 09 420 7162.
