How Ethan found his voice
Ethan's life was surrounded by drugs and alcohol due to gang-affiliated friends and family. But after losing loved ones, he joined a Graeme Dingle Foundation programme. Initially hesitant and shy, he gradually gained confidence, showed his humour and found his voice.
The programme helped him explore different career paths and Ethan became one of the top graduates from his cohort. The Foundation took the opportunity to hire him and he now helps other young people involved in the programme on their career journeys.

Lights on Mistletoe
Looking for a local Xmas Lights display in Browns Bay? Come and check out 4 Mistletoe Place. We're at it again with a great display, walk through gardens, sweets for the kids, and of course the 'snow' machine.
So grateful again for the support from New World Browns Bay.
Its FREE. So come and admire from the road, then walk through the gardens and immerse yourself in all the lights. We're collecting for Child Cancer Foundation, so any donation is greatly appreciated.
Lights on at 7:50pm and turn off around 11. (Off at midnight in the final week of Xmas.)
Spread the word and we'll see you soon.
