CAB Pakuranga celebrates its volunteers!

Hira Siddiqui from Citizens Advice Bureau Pakuranga/Eastern Manukau

💛 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 hear from you: would you be keen to switch to a fortnightly rubbish collection, or do you prefer things as they are?
