Thanks for an amazing week!

Hilary MorrishAllen from Lake Taupo Hospice

As part of National Volunteer Week #NVW2017 we have been profiling the work of some of our fabulous volunteers. To wrap up an amazing week, today we share some the comments we have received from members of the Taupo community about our volunteers. Thank you everyone for your lovely feedback. It’s great to know our volunteers are valued by everyone!

They make the world a better place! Thank you

Hospice makes money to help people – they are great ladies!

All their precious time is dedicated free of charge to serve the community with precision and utmost care. “Awesome”

They make my day every Wednesday I visit and shop, laugh and leave with a smile!

Everybody really has a smile on their face and so lovely.

Thank you volunteers!

They are priceless!

Because they aren’t paid to smile so their smiles are genuine!

Taupo would be lost without such volunteers.  “They rock”

Without volunteers this would not happen.  Caring is sharing!

Lovely people like this.  Lovely shop.  Best shop in the world.

Appreciate you all.  Where would we be if no one loved?

You do an awesome job!
They are selfless!

What a wonderful contribution to our community!

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!
