Working with people is one of the great joys of being a CAB volunteer. When volunteers are asked what they love most about being involved with CAB, is that no two days are the same.
CAB NP is currently looking for more volunteers. Volunteers are fully supported with initial and ongoing learning as they come up to speed with the challenges and pleasures of being a volunteer. You will also be supported by a huge range of resources including a referral database listing 35,000 organisations.
Its great to be actively involved in our community, using our knowledge and experience to help people and having a bit of a laugh together sometimes as well.
if you are interested, please call 06 7589542 or email newplymouth@cab.org.nz. Alternatively, call in at 32 Leach street to say hello. We would love to hear from you.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
