Ryman brings Christmas cheer

Malvina Major Retirement Village

Hundreds of Kiwi children will receive something special this Christmas thanks to Ryman Healthcare’s support of the Catalytic Foundation’s Christmas Shoebox Project.

Ryman residents were overwhelmingly in support of the idea, with many volunteering to help choose the gifts to fill over 1000 shoeboxes with thoughtful items.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
