Street Appeal Cancelled - Help us Meet the Need
Because of current COVID-19 restrictions, we’ve had to make the tough call to cancel our Vinnies Annual Street Appeal. This doesn’t stop the challenges our communities are facing and the increasing amount of support services being accessed at our Newtown Hub.
Times are tough at the moment. We need your help to meet the increasing demand for Vinnies Welfare Services, ensuring kiwis have access to the support they need when they need it.
If in a position to do so, please consider donating to the Vinnies Annual Appeal. Every dollar will help keep our services open and accessible to the community.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

FREE 10-liter emergency water bottles
Merry Christmas -
I have around twenty, empty 10-liter distilled water bottles to serve as emergency water storage. I saved them for my friends, but they already have their own water supplies. Take as many as you like. Please respond to this notice if you are interested.
Best wishes - Michael
