Urgent Volunteers Needed
We need you!
Age Concern Otago coordinates volunteer drivers who collectively deliver more than 500 hot two course meals to Dunedin clients every week.
Volunteers collect meals from one of the various sites around the city every lunchtime. Each run takes about an hour to complete.
Often our volunteers provide the only human contact with Meals on Wheels clients from day to day and both the volunteers and clients describe this as a rewarding experience.
If you can spare one hour, once or twice per month to deliver a hot lunch time meals to people in your community, please call Fiona on 03 479 3055 or email Mealsonwheels@ageconcernotago.co.nz

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
