Covid-19 UPDATE
Since we are staying at "Delta Level 2" for another two weeks, here's a reminder of what Volunteer Marlborough is doing:
💙 Our staff will continue working from home and our office will remain closed until Marlborough goes to Alert Level 1.
💙 You can still contact us (see below) and we are more than happy to book video call appointments.
💙 Our AGM has been rescheduled to Wednesday, 20th October.
💙 We are holding off on planning more Picton Connect events until we are closer to moving to Level 1.
💙 We will continue providing ongoing updates and sharing resources through our social media and website.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
