Red Cross Journey is a step a challenge. The idea is you walk 10,000 steps a day, either as an individual or a team whilst raising vital funds for people in need. As you walk you will receive updates on the real journey of a Red Cross delegate or former refugee family who have resettled in New Zealand to motivate you along the way. All you need to get started is a pedometer or phone/watch that tracks your daily steps.
Red Cross Journey is a national event but here in Hawke's Bay we have a couple of exciting events planned, keep your eyes peeled for more information.
* Can’t be involved in the event but want to help spread the word please feel free to share this information far and wide, the more the merrier!
* Are you a business and want to sponsor a prize for one of our events or challenges? Please contact amber.mcarthur@redcross.org.nz to talk more.

The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free. For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas: Buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food pantry, help someone with a broken down car or flat tire, bring treats into work for colleagues, send an encouraging text to someone who needs it, let a car into the traffic ahead of you, take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself, write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood, or surprise loved ones with a visit.
This month also coincides with World Humanitarian Day on August 19th and Random Acts of Kindness Day (New Zealand) which is on September 1st.
Let us know how you’re spreading kindness in your community by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

The red right turn arrows need to turn off after a delay like the Taradale road into Maadi road intersection to help with traffic flow.
