Volunteer for Age Concern 

 

Age Concern Wellington needs volunteers. Our volunteers are our lifeblood – without them we couldn’t do what we do. There are many ways you can help us through volunteering. Our Companion Walking Service provides one-to-one assistance for people who find walking on their own difficult. We need volunteers for this service in Miramar, Tawa/Linden, Northern Suburbs and Whitby areas.

For more information call us on 04 4996646 or visit our website www.acwellington.org.nz

February Community Clean Up

 

Join Te Aro Zero Waste for our monthly community street clean in Wellington! Let’s unite to kick trash to the curb and beautify our streets.

We’ll spend roughly an hour on the streets and waterfront with our litter pickers making our community a waste-free zone.

Getting involved in a lunch time community clean-up is a great way to get out with your office crew, social club or green team.

Remember to wear comfy clothes and shoes, bring a hat and plenty of water. We will have plenty of sunscreen and sanitiser available and will provide everyone with litter pickers and buckets.

You’re welcome to join us for as little or as long as you like, just pop along to Te Aro Zero Waste at Sustainability Trust HQ @ 12 pm and do your bit to help make Welly waste-free.
