It is an opportunity to learn about other cultures and network with like-minded women. While mentors take the opportunity to hold the door open for younger women to reach their full potential, they come away with unique experiences that enrich their own lives.

Here is a video about the programme - vimeo.com...

2018 mentee intakes will come from Henderson High School, Mount Roskill Grammar School and Onehunga High School. Please let us know what your preference of school would be.

Hello lovely people of Hibiscus we are residents of Orewa.

With much regret we are having to rehome our beautiful cats due to temporary relocation to the UK at the end of September. We are looking to find someone to help us as soon as possible.

Jim (strawberry blonde) is a DSH and nearly 2 years old, he has the most amazing personality and is well and truly spoilt. He loves to play but knows when to stop and have a cuddle.

Rosie (black and grey) is in her senior years, we rescued her 2 years ago. She is beautiful inside and out, she asks for nothing but to be fed twice a day and to have a nice spot of her own to nap in.

They don’t have to be homed together, they are more acquaintances rather than close friends.

Ideally it would be a foster care arrangement for 12 months however if you fall in love with them as much as we do we would be happy to discuss permanent rehoming.

Please get in touch if you are able to help us.

Thanks Dion

This year we've heard from nearly 200 Aucklanders about our humanity... For the next 8 weeks we will share some of the simple ideas we've heard about how to improve it.

WEEK ONE: Try a random act of kindness.

People have told us they've done the RAK's below... Let us know if you've done one, or add a new idea to the list!:
- Tag someone onto the bus
- Give someone a hug when they're sad
- Pool some money together and surprise someone by paying for their groceries
- Give someone your parking ticket if there's time left on it
