We’re looking for people aged 18 years or over who are resident in Auckland, have access to an iPhone, have had two or more occasions in the last 30 days where they have drunk six or more glasses of alcohol on one occasion, and want to reduce or stop drinking alcohol.
People who join the study will be randomly allocated to use one of two versions of the Step Away app. Both apps are designed to give feedback, tools, and support to reduce or stop drinking alcohol. The apps are free and have no in-app purchases.

This trial is being carried out by the National Institute for Health Innovation, University of Auckland. The trial is funded by the Health Research Council of New Zealand. The study has been approved by the Southern Health and Disability Ethics Committee (17/STH/94).

Do you or any friends or family members have an exceptionally social and well-mannered animal? We’re currently looking for new SPCA Outreach Therapy Pet Volunteers.

We believe that pet therapy can help people in institutions where they may feel isolated and lonely. As a volunteer with the programme, you (and your pet!) will be bringing joy and comfort to people in rest homes, hospitals, and mental health wards.

Prior to being accepted into the programme, all animals undergo an assessment that measures their sociability, temperament, obedience and confidence. Unfortunately we are unable to accept animals that show signs of fearfulness or aggression. Animals are also required to undergo a Vet Health Check to ensure they are vaccinated, microchipped, desexed and in good health. Volunteers who are accepted will receive training and be placed at a facility they can continue to visit (typically weekly or fortnightly) on an ongoing basis.

If you and your animal are interested in volunteering with Outreach Therapy Pets please visit our website for more information and to apply.

Thank you for offering to share the joy your animal gives you with others.
