🌿VOLUNTEERS NEEDED🌿
~UPDATE~ THANKS SO MUCH TO EVERYONE WHO RESPONDED, WOW, SUCH LOVELY PEOPLE!
I THINK I HAVE ENOUGH VOLUNTEERS AT THE MOMENT, BUT FEEL FREE TO BE IN TOUCH AS BACK-UPS MAY BE NEEDED IF ANY OF THESE CASES FALL THROUGH FOR WHATEVER REASON.
Hi all – As some of you may know, I’m studying naturopathy and nutrition, and this semester I need to find 5 clients for clinical practice assessments. This will require volunteers to fill out an extensive health history and undergo a 60-90 minute consultation with me. In exchange, I am happy to offer each volunteer a free full consultation once I am practicing next year (💃woohoo!) But for now, I’ll be looking for:
• 3 people here in the Nelson area for face-to-face consults -one with a digestive issue.
• 1 person taking at least 2 prescription or over-the-counter medications –online consult is fine.
• 1 person with a chronic condition (such as cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, dysmenorrhea, benign prostatic hyperplasia, etc.) -online consult is fine with this case as well.
Feel free to pass this along or tag someone you think might be interested💚I need all the help I can get spreading the word, especially for the in-person consults as I’ve recently relocated to Nelson and don’t have a lot of contacts here yet😅…thanks all!

🌟 We are now recruiting volunteers at Citizens Advice Bureau Nelson Tasman! 🌟
If you are curious about volunteering with us, we would love to hear from you! Training includes supported learning and time alongside an experienced mentor.

– CAB volunteer
As a CAB volunteer, no two days are the same. One moment you might be helping someone understand their rights after buying something, another you might simply be listening while someone works through a tricky situation. We do not tell people what to do – we help them understand their options and find what works best for them.
While our website is available anytime, many people really value talking with someone face to face. That is why our local offices matter so much.
📍 Our current opening times:
• Richmond (main office), 9a Cambridge Street: Monday to Thursday, 9am-4.30pm
• Nelson: Mondays and Fridays, 9am-4.30pm, sharing space with Age Concern, 18 Bridge Street
• Motueka: Thursdays, 9.30am–1pm at the Motueka Library (reopening soon!)
To offer this free service to everyone in our community, we rely on well-trained volunteers.
