This positive message is about celebrating what volunteers bring to their communities. It is important to recognise volunteering and the place it has in keeping our communities strong and healthy.
The benefits of being a volunteer are well-documented. There's better health and the feel-good endorphins that volunteering releases; around how volunteering can help with job prospects; and other health benefits such as extending longevity and reducing depression in many people. As poet and essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson observed, It is one of the beautiful compensations of life that no man can sincerely help another without helping himself.
National Volunteer Week is a great opportunity to start volunteering or, if you already volunteer, it's a great time to invite a friend to join you. The positive message for the Week celebrates the joy that volunteers bring to their communities. It also reminds us that volunteers reap the reward of a happier, more engaged life because they feel connected to their communities.
“Volunteers do not necessarily have the time; they just have the heart.” — Elizabeth Andrew
I would like to use this opportunity to recognise the huge amount of work done by just over 100 Volunteers for the Christchurch Area Citizens Advice Bureau (3 Branches and 2 satellites). There is extensive training to start with and then they commit to on going training to keep up to date. I am in awe of the service you provide with diligence, care, sympathy and empathy to help anyone who seeks out assistance.

As part of its Re:ACTIVATE programme SCAPE Public Art is on the hunt for young creatives who want to stamp their mark on Christchurch by having an art work they designed super-sized and publicly displayed for a six-week season, beginning in October.
Last year seven-year-old George Lewis’ drawing was turned into a 1.9 metre by 1.45 metre artwork, titled Sunbeam and displayed in the Re:Start Mall.
This year the best two art works will be displayed in Hagley Park.
