Action Education Incorporated

Legal status:	Incorporated Society		Activity focus:	Arts and culture
Project: Spoken Word Activation Workshops Empowering Young People using the Arts
Location:	Ormiston College
Summary:	We are requesting funding towards x 12 Spoken Word Workshops for young people within high schools in the local board area (schools listed in ‘Project Location). Using feedback from young people, we have honed and refined our spoken word workshops to: 1. Introduce participants to spoken word poetry, supporting their writing and literacy skills 2. Introduce young people to a creative, affordable, relevant and accessible medium for self-expression 3. Build confidence and self-esteem while connecting with their collective and individual identities. We provide these workshops, free of charge and we distribute alongside them our “Spoken Word Guidelines” resource for educators. http://www.actioneducation.co.nz/resources.html.
Expertise:	Action Education is recognised as a leading Youth Development organisation who successfully use creative methods to engage and support diverse groups of young people to explore and strengthen their individual and collective identities. With over 30 years’ experience, we have honed our programmes to inspire, grow, and connect our current and future leaders. On average our programmes receive an overall positive evaluation rating of 92%. In a recent external survey of Action Education programmes (2022) 91% of survey respondents reported that their involvement in the programme had a positive impact on their overall well-being, increasing their confidence around public speaking, and their confidence around writing to express themselves.
Dates:	03/07/2023 - 24/11/2023
People reached:	150-300
% of participants from Local Board		100%
Promotion:	We will promote the workshops through our relationships with schools and coordinate full attendance – around 20 participants per workshop. We will publicly acknowledge the local board through our Facebook Page, at the Workshop, in our Annual Report and Annual Accounts.

Community benefits
Identified community outcomes:
	The Youth Development Strategy Aotearoa says ‘Youth Development is triggered when young people fully participate and that young people need to be given opportunities to have greater control over what happens to them, through seeking their advice, participation and engagement’. Spoken Word Poetry is an art form that’s increasingly recognised as an effective vehicle for young people to understand, who they are in the context of where they are, what healthy relationships look like and how they can be enhanced through using tools such as active listening, communication, authentic expression, empathy and understanding. Arts continue to emerge as a medium for young people to engage and connect with their peers, feelings and emotions. In recent survey by CNZ it was found that kiwis believe arts have wide-ranging benefits. The majority feel participating in art activities makes them more confident (67%), helps them to feel good about life in general (62%), and helps them to make friends (58%). The workshops often act as a catalyst for young people to start their journey within a thriving youth poetry environment where diversity is embraced, critical thinking is encouraged and young people are actively involved in their own development.
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· Rangatahi /Youth in Howick have a voice, are valued, and contribute By holding the workshops we are enabled to support and connect Rangatahi through spoken word poetry workshops that encourage an inclusive environment where diversity is fostered and can bloom, where young people can create and connect and are encouraged to speak their truth while being cheered on by their peers. There is nothing more powerful than knowing you are not alone and that you are celebrated for who you are. These are the environments these workshops curate for our young people.

Demographics
Māori outcomes:	· All of our staff and volunteers are trained in the Treaty of Waitangi and Maori models of Health such as Te Whare Tapa Wha, Tuakana/Teina and the Takarangi Cultural Competency Framework. We have high representation of Maori, Pasifika and People of Colour within our core staff, volunteers, community supporters and communities that we serve, who guide our mahi. We use Karakia, Waiata, Whakatauki, Poroporoaki and Powhiri within our programmes where appropriate. We hold core values such as Aroha, manaakitanga and kotahitanga throughout all of our programmes. Fundamentally we acknowledge that peoples, such as Maori are taonga who need safe, supportive and positive spaces where they are celebrated, uplifted and; can build, reflect on, and grow their own aspirations.
Accessible to people with disabilities	Yes - Our work is mainly held at secondary schools and community centres which are all well equipped to provide access for those with physical disabilities. Upon entry into our programmes, we take into account the unique needs of each individual so that we can ensure they are comfortable and can fully participate.
Healthy environment approach:	Promote smoke-free messages We have a smoke free policy's in place at our workspace, and our work mostly takes place in smoke free environments such as community centres and schools. All of our youth development workers are trained to be able to offer support in smoking cessation.

Does your project support any genders, ages or ethnicities specifically?

Our workshops attract and support an incredibly diverse range of participants in terms of gender, ethnicity, culture, faith, world view, sexuality and, socio-economic backgrounds. We know from experience that it is through shared stories our programmes can break down stereotypes and give young people a craft to express their voice. We support an inclusive environment where diversity is fostered and can bloom.

Combined Probus Club of Botany Downs

Legal status:	Informal group/ no legal structure		Activity focus:	Community
Project: Combined Probus Club of Botany Downs -
Location:	Our monthly main Social Meetings are held at Eastview Baptist Church, Botany. The other activities are held at various locations in the wider Howick area as indicated in this application.
Summary:	By organising over 120 individual physical, mental, social activities and/or interactions per year, we strongly believe we greatly enhance the personnel wellbeing of members. We provide the opportunity and/or make it easier for members to become more active & involved in activities they would probably not otherwise participate. The arrangement of these numerous activities and their suitable venues requires that organisers also become involved in community matters and that participants spend more time in their local community.
Expertise:	Given our members are retirees from a wide range of backgrounds we can draw on a considerable depth of expertise and significant business experience.
Dates:	01/07/2023 - 30/06/2024
People reached:	125
% of participants from Local Board		98%
Promotion:	We advise members of Grants received by way of advice and acknowledgement at the main social meetings and also include details in the monthly Newsletter sent to all members. The details are also clearly disclosed in the Club's Annual financial Accounts.

Identified community outcomes:
	Our Club, on a voluntary basis, in organising the activities, as detailed, provides significant opportunities for members to become participate in many beneficial events which suit their differing needs & interests. It also provides opportunity for members to give back to their community. The many venues used for the activities benefit financially from the increased utilisation of their premises and the revenue which results. We strongly believe this increased involvement of our members has a significant beneficial effect on the mental & physical wellbeing of all members involved.
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· People are safe with access to services to support their wellbeing We encourage and provide a safe & enjoyable environment for our retiree members to get out and participate more frequently in their local community. In post Covid restriction times this is particularly important for our target market. Other than the day trips arranged, all other activities are conducted within the local area. In organising and attending the activities. it is necessary for the members to become more involved with local organisations & businesses. For example we use the facilities at the Howick and Pakuranga Community Houses, Howick Croquet Club, Eastview Baptist Church, Howick Little Theatre, St. Marks Parish Centre, The Howick Club, various local Cafes & Restaurants, and the local walking tracks and recreation areas for our activities. The expenses incurred by our club and its members in conducting these activities support local organisations financially.

Collaborating organisation/individual	Role
Eastview Baptist Church, Botany	We hire their facilities for 10 x monthly social meetings per year
Highland Park & Pakuranga Community Houses	We hire a room for 11 x monthly Canasta group meetings per year.
Howick Croquet Club	We hire their clubrooms for 11 x monthly Rummikub group meetings per year.
St. Marks Parish Centre	We utilise a room for our Book Club which meets monthly.
Howick Little Theatre	This interest group has been regular attending performances at the Howick Little Theater for many years.
Howick Club	We have for many years held our Christmas dinner function at the Howick Club.
Local walking tracks	Our weekly Walking group utilises many of the local walking tracks.
Various local restaurants & cafes	Our monthly Luncheon group, Men's coffee group and weekly Walking group meet & support a number of local food outlets.

Demographics
Māori outcomes:	· Not specified
Accessible to people with disabilities	Yes - Given the age of our members it is important that we always ensure all venues used are suitable and accessible by all members. We also, through our monthly "telephone tree" calls to all members, determine whether transport assistance is required to attend activities and arrange assistance where necessary.
Healthy environment approach:	Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes All our activities, as detailed, are based around stimulation and exercise of the mind and body in a safe and friendly environment. All venues & involvement, including our walking group, are smoke free.

Does your project support any genders, ages or ethnicities specifically?

No. All retirees or semi retirees are welcome to become members regardless of gender or ethnicity.

Financial information
Amount requested:	$1000.00
Requesting grant for:	We are specifically requesting funding to subsidise the cost of hiring venues for Canasta (at Highland Park & Pakuranga Community Houses), Rummikub (at Howick Croquet Club) and our main social meetings (at Easrview Baptist Church).
If part funded, how would you make up the difference: We would be required to increase the entry fees for Canasta and Rummikub to cover the cost of hiring rooms for these activities. This is likely to have an effect on the level of participation in these activities. Alternatively we would need to consider adjusting upwards the annual subscription fees of door charge at the main social meetings. Given most of our members are on fixed incomes we have found that increases in costs can be detrimental to the level of participation in activities.
Cost of participation:	The Annual membership fee is $25. We also charge an entry fee of $3 pp at each monthly main social meeting attended mainly to cover the cost of providing morning tea/coffee & biscuits. If we are not successful with this application we will have to re-introduce a fee of $4 pp at each attendance at Canasta and Rummikub to cover the cost of hiring the venues we have arranged for these activities.

Additional information to support the application:

Covid has greatly restricted and effected the number of activities we have been able to conduct over the past couple of years, and our members' age group has probably been more disrupted than most. Unfortunately, our membership has decreased during this period and it is important that we endeavour to now reverse this trend back towards previous levels of membership. Given our members are mostly on fixed incomes keeping costs down is an important consideration in conducting the activities we provide for the benefit of members and the community. This grant would significantly assist us achieve those objectives

Howick & Districts Historical Society Inc.

Legal status:	Incorporated Society		Activity focus:	Arts and culture
Project: Fit for purpose: tools of the trade(s)
Location:	Howick Historical Village, 75 Bells Road, Pakuranga Heights, Auckland 2010
Summary:	This grant request is not for a specific project, per se, but helps us purchase equipment needed to manage Howick Historical Village. The first set of equipment covers digital recording and transcription equipment, to be used by our Education Manager & Storytelling Coordinator, Roimata Prendergast. The second item, a DeWalt wet/dry vacuum, will help us quickly remove the water that leaks into our staff break room when it rains (which is often, and will continue until we can replace the roof).The final appliance, a clothes dryer, will replace the old, energy-inefficient one donated to the Village in the 80s. While normally we line dry all our costumes, underclothes, and textiles, sometimes tight time frames and sanitation concerns require quicker drying.
Expertise:	Roimata has several years experience interviewing, storytelling, and mentoring. She has already developed a good relationship with Song and Kit, and has created valued and valuable connections between HHV and the Owairoa Marae. She has also attended several Auckland Library-led workshops on oral history, and is currently completing a six-week workshop on creating a podcast. Regarding the vacuum and dryer, our staff are well versed in using the appliances.
Dates:	03/07/2023 - 28/06/2024
People reached:	over 19,600 people have already visited HHV in 22/23 (see Sharepoint reporting for HHV),
% of participants from Local Board		%

Community benefits
Identified community outcomes:
	The main community benefit of this request will be the East Auckland residents with whom Roimata will kōrero for her storytelling projects. Currently, she is working with Kit Wong and Song Lam on a project titled "Tales of the Godwits" but has to borrow the equipment from Auckland Library's main branch, which means she is not always able to access it when Kit and Song are available, or vice versa. Purchasing this equipment for ourselves would help move the project along, and allow Roimata to record and transcribe more stories. In terms of the other appliances, the wet/dry vacuum will mainly support the safety of our staff, volunteers, archives, and library when it rains, while the dryer will facilitate managing our costume room and keeping good hygiene practices. Additionally, the dryer is a heat pump design, so the water collected will be used in irrigation.
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· Support local arts, culture, music and heritage activities and experiences This grant application requests funds to purchase much-needed equipment for Howick Historical Village. The Village hopes to secure funding to purchase recording and transcription equipment for our Education Manager & Storytelling Coordinator, Roimata Prendergast, to support her storytelling work. The wet/dry vacuum will help keep our staff break room dry and, more importantly, our archives and library, which are proximate to the break room. This appliance is especially important for us to have until we can replace our perished archgola roof that was installed in the mid-90s. The heat pump dryer will help us manage our costume collection, practice hygiene best practices, and we will reuse the collected water for irrigation in our gardens. From expanding our Storytelling programme, to helping us clean up after heavy rains, to enabling us to better care for our costume collection, the equipment requested here will enable Howick Historical Village staff to be safe and successful in their respective roles.

Demographics
Māori outcomes:	· Roimata Prendergast, Ngāti Kahu \| Mauke – Cook Islands \| Ra’iātea - Tahiti, is in the process of recording and producing interviews for a sound installation called Pacific Frequencies: Mahu, to be held at HHV during Matariki and then will travel to Auckland Libraries. This project is supported through Arts out East and Te Tuhi, and features Māori and Pasifika voices. She is also filming and recording a short form documentary on Whaea Taini of Owairoa Marae for HHV's Auckland Heritage Festival 2023 programming.
Accessible to people with disabilities	Yes - Available in written and audio formats.
Healthy environment approach:	Promote smoke-free messages, Encourage the reduction of carbon emissions or increase community resilience to the impacts of climate change* The recording equipment purchase will cut down on the number of times Roimata drives to and from Auckland Library to rent their equipment (which so far has been 5 times). The wet/dry vacuum will help keep mould from growing in the staff break room and prevent slips and falls, and the dryer is an energy efficient heat pump model, from which we will use the captured water in irrigation.

Does your project support any genders, ages or ethnicities specifically?

Through Roimata's storytelling work, she is tasked with the following three main measurable outcomes:

•           Develop relationships with local storytellers, narrators, poets, authors, and other practitioners, as well as people new to the tradition, so that space is created for stories to be shared by the holders of that knowledge.
•           Support the kaitiakitanga of te ao Māori and related knowledge.
•           Where best practice would be to support community groups and others, the successful candidate will act as an intermediary between the art of storytelling and its application in society. In practice this involves creating frameworks and identifying opportunities for others to tell stories.

Her job is to share stories, but also to connect with and platform those voices who are best suited to tell their own stories.
The vacuum and dyer are not necessarily supporting this work, but will make the work space safe for our staff and volunteers.

Financial information
Amount requested:	$2443.57
Requesting grant for:	The total amount of equipment we would like to purchase is $2,874.79 incl. GST. We are asking for 85% of this amount, as we will cover the GST total of $431.22.
If part funded, how would you make up the difference: Any funds approved would first cover the cost of the recording equipment so Roimata can better do her Storytelling job, then the wet/dry vacuum, then the dryer. If necessary, cheaper options of the vacuum and dryer will be considered, but the ones selected have the highest reviews for their price ranges, as well as reliable product support and repair from their respective manufacturers.

Additional information to support the application:

Attached is an excerpt from Roimata's submission to MCH's 2022 Ngā Kōrero Tuku Iho, Piki Ake! Kake Ake!, New Zealand Oral History Grants. She applied to support her project "Tales of the Godwits." This text is included here to help explain the project.

Attached are photos of our break room from Tuesday, 9 May 2023 and the heavy rain. A wet/dry vacuum would have helped ameliorate the situation much faster. To assuage any concerns: we have received one roof replacement quote, and are securing others, as well as funding to cover the project + consent costs.

Howick Bowling Club Incorporated

Legal status:	Incorporated Society		Activity focus:	N/A
Project: Bar Tills Project
Location:	33 Selwyn Road Howick Clubrooms-Upper and lower lounges
Summary:	We need to upgrade our two current bar tills. They are situated in the bar in each of the downstairs and upstairs lounges. Our current tills are over 16 years old and are no longer fit for purpose.
Expertise:	We have delivered a number of projects in recent years including renovation of the greenkeeper's shed, an iced water station, modernized our downstairs kitchenette, added a bowls shop, air conditioning units, and installed new toilet cisterns.
Dates:	10/07/2023 - 31/07/2023
People reached:	5,500 over 12 months
% of participants from Local Board		90%
Promotion:	We would acknowledge the Board's support in our website news section, and in our annual general accounts and report.

Community benefits
Identified community outcomes:
	The main benefit will be that the members and users of the facilities will have their refreshment orders attended to more efficiently,and reduce the waiting time for service. The new machines will enable us to do away with the current plastic token manual system. Another benefit will enable bar staff to access multiple pricing regimes which is currently not an option. Also the icons currently in use have small screens and are difficult to read. This causes delays in addressing customers' needs.
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· Sports and recreational opportunities respond to the needs of our communities Our club provides bowls opportunities for members of all ages and ethnicities. Our bowls calendar caters for competitive and social players alike. We have a regular coaching programme twice a week throughout the year, as we have 3 grass greens for the summer and 2 synthetic greens for the 12 months. Our clubroom amenities are amongst the best in Auckland. This application will enable us to function more efficiently in both the upstairs and downstairs lounges, and falls within the Board's planning priorities.

Demographics
Māori outcomes:	· Not specified
Accessible to people with disabilities	Yes - The club already caters for users who have disabilities. We have existing entrance and egress ramps, and special car parks available.
Healthy environment approach:	Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice We have smokefree signs inside and outside the clubrooms and a small designated area outside near the clubrooms for smokers. We have permanent rubbish and recycling bins outside the building. We have outside and inside water stations available.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference: We would have to possibly increase members' subscriptions or undertake a special tournament, but this would be difficult at this time in view of the current economic and inflationary climate.

Promotion:	Auckland Logo and Howick Board's participation noted in the monthly Club Newsletter.

Community benefits
Identified community outcomes:
	Assisted Bus Hire for Elderly members of the Howick Community especially for older non-driving members.
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· People actively contribute to their community We do believe that it is important for the elderly members of our community to be ‘included’ in such outings, particularly as it is in the companionship of their friends from the Probus Club. It has been reported that loneliness is a very real problem for elderly people, particularly in the current climate, and this is why such clubs as ours are important, and I believe that we do well in improving the quality of life for our senior citizens. We are seeing a growing number of our members are feeling the increasing financial pressures of their retirement years, and these are increasing year on year, Many of our members cannot afford to go on the trips unless they are subsidised in some way. The club does contribute to the bus hire for the trips in the greater Auckland area but this is fairly limited. The grant would assist us in making more trips during 2023/4

Demographics
Māori outcomes:	· Not specified
Accessible to people with disabilities	Yes - Assistance is given in boarding and dismounting from the bus.
Healthy environment approach:	Promote smoke-free messages, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes Not aware of any of our 140 members who smoke. Trip venues are chosen which encourage suitable walks for the members

Howick Playcentre Incorporated

Legal status:	Incorporated Society		Activity focus:	Sport and recreation
Project: Safety Vests and Tear Drop Flag
Location:	Howick Playcentre, 98 Nelson Street, Howick, Auckland 2014
Summary:	Every Tuesday at our Playcentre, we hold our Nature Day session. This session is always run outdoors ats locations across south, east, and central Tāmaki Makaurau. Our parent volunteers plan activities and explorations at beaches, local reserves and bushes. We aim to help our tamariki become more connected with nature and the history of our local area. We are wanting to purchase Safety Vests for the tamariki and adults to wear and a Tear Drop Flag to display at our locations.
Expertise:	As a whānau-led centre we have experience delivering all parts of our service including all projects. We have a Treasurer, Coordinator and Equipment Officer who will lead this particular project.
Dates:	02/07/2023 - 31/08/2023
People reached:	21
% of participants from Local Board		100%
Promotion:	We can publicly acknowledge the local board through our Facebook and Instagram pages and through the Playcentre community at meetings, which will be recorded in the meeting minutes.

Community benefits
Identified community outcomes:
	Our tamariki and parent volunteers become more aware of our local environment and how to care for it. We are slowly learning more information about native trees, birdlife and other wildlife. Our children are learning the importance of kaitiakitanga, which benefits all of us. By wearing our vests, we also are able to model to the local community that being out in nature and exploring can be a safe, positive and routine part of the early childhood education experience.
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· People are safe with access to services to support their wellbeing. At Howick Playcentre, we have a unique and much loved Nature Day session every Tuesday. Instead of hosting our 9am - 12pm session at our centre, we visit a new local outdoor location every week. We enjoy exploring our local area with our tamariki, no matter the weather. Being in the outdoors lets each of us make connections to the environment. This can give us a stronger understanding of who we are and where we live. Learning in the outdoors helps us to understand the connections between all living things, including people, and their physical environment. Being outdoors is critical for our hauora's development, but we also need to conduct these sessions in a safe manner. Purchasing Safety Vests and a Tear Drop Flag is critical to our ability to keep our tamariki safe on Nature Days, as we will be visible to each other and members of the community will be able to easily identify our group in case their assistance is required.

Collaborating organisation/individual	Role
All parents volunteer their time to teach the tamariki and maintain the centre	approximately 500 volunteer hours per half year

Demographics
Māori outcomes:	· As an organisation we honour Te Tiriti o Waitangi and celebrate people’s uniqueness. We weave Maori tikanga throughout our practices. We encourage the use of Maori in every session, including Nature Day. Our Nature Day activities strongly emphasise hauora (the Māori philosophy of health) and kaitiakitanga (guardianship).
Accessible to people with disabilities	No -
Healthy environment approach:	Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes At the heart of our Nature Day sessions is a commitment to embracing the outdoors. Throughout the year, we can be found rolling down maunga, climbing trees, jumping in puddles, walking bush trails, and digging sandcastles. These vests will allow us to continue to encourage our tamariki to safely explore the outdoors, and gain confidence and control of their bodies. The tear drop flag will provide visibility to the community that we are exploring and encourage others to participate in their own nature experience.

We will be able to get significantly physically and intellectually disabled children out of their often cumbersome and restricting wheelchairs and set them amongst other community members in a water play situation or at the beach or on picnics etc. Participation in every day community events is a way of normalising and empowering those who manage a disability. The community in turn learns acceptance, tolerance and gains understanding of the needs of the disability community, within this participation.
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· People are safe with access to services to support their wellbeing To collaborate with the local community to create opportunities that promote the disability sector in a positive sense. To get involved and make use of all the wonderful facilities on offer to us within the local area, using library facilities and classes, we also make fantastic use of the fitness centres in the area. To train support workers to understand about the issues that face children and young adults and families with special needs. To provide a team of trained carers, to care for the children while in our programmes, thus allowing other families members to have some much needed respite knowing that their child is well cared for in a safe environment. Also, The community will benefit by having a well established programme for children, youth and adults that is set in a positive environment that maximises their potential and promotes a sense of belonging. To ensure the children and adults in our programmes feel wanted and included within their community. The need for our service is crucial to families so that they can have the respite needed when trying to manage the every day demands of life plus the needs of a special needs/disabled child or adult.

The concert ensures that pre-school tamariki and their whānau have equitable access to a superb storytelling and spirited classical music opportunity specifically designed for the very young (0-6yrs). The concert will be tailored to the community and includes local references which allow the audience to see themselves and their neighbourhood in the story. The development of the story has been informed by Te Whariki (the NZ Early Childhood Curriculum) ensuring an integrated early learning experience. Having a book and CD to take away ensures the experience can be recreated at home.
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· Support local arts, culture, music and heritage activities and experiences NZ Barok's Baby Baroque Kids' concerts (7-8 July) will see NZ Barok perform their popular family concerts aimed at tamariki aged 0-6 years. This year sees the ensemble performing at Te Tuhi, Pakuranga, South East Auckland and Te Manawa, Massey in West Auckland. Blending baroque music with dynamic storytelling in both English and Te Reo Māori, this is a fun, dynamic hour long concert that brings children and their whānau right in amongst the orchestra, and introduces them to baroque music and its instruments. Access and participation are the main drivers for NZ Barok performing the Baby Baroque Kids' Concerts for free. The cost of concerts is a massive barrier to many families so removing that barrier makes a big difference to being able to participate.

Demographics
Māori outcomes:	· A key motivation for performing at Te Tuhi is to provide free access to a high-quality arts/ education event, therefore addressing issues of social and cultural equity. The concerts will provide a nurturing environment held in a familiar community space, incorporating te reo, and a strong Māori story line. Crossing cultural boundaries provides a mechanism for strengthening cultural cohesion and whānau resilience. Respecting and bringing together the practices and values of both the cultures of NZ Barok and the local community can open-up diverse experiences for tamariki and whānau, and enhance the cultural vibrancy and musical diversity in the community.
Accessible to people with disabilities	Yes - All people are welcome at the concert. NZ Barok can be contacted before hand in regards to meeting the particular needs of any audience member. The venue is completely accessible to wheel chairs. The seating arrangements will be made so that wheelchairs can easily be accommodated.

Community benefits
Identified community outcomes:
	Providing supermarket and petrol vouchers to clients in need can have a number of community benefits, including: Addressing immediate needs: Supermarket and petrol vouchers can help clients to address their immediate needs for food and transportation. This can help to prevent food insecurity and ensure that clients are able to access the resources they need to participate in their community. Promoting financial stability: By providing clients with vouchers for basic necessities, such as food and transportation, the service can help them to maintain financial stability and avoid falling into further financial hardship. Improving health and well-being: Access to nutritious food and reliable transportation can have a positive impact on clients' health and well-being, which can in turn benefit the community as a whole. When people are healthy and well-nourished, they are better able to participate in community activities and contribute to the well-being of others. Providing supermarket and petrol vouchers to clients in need can help to address immediate needs, promote financial stability, encourage community involvement, and improve health and well-being.
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· People actively contribute to their community Pakuranga and Howick Budgeting Service helps people to actively contribute to their community by empowering them to take control of their finances and improve their financial well-being. By providing free budgeting advice, debt management support, and financial education, the service helps people to become more financially stable, which can have a positive impact on their personal lives and their ability to contribute to their community. Here are a few ways that Pakuranga and Howick Budgeting Service can help people to contribute to their community: Improved financial stability: By helping people to manage their finances more effectively, the service can help them to become more financially stable and secure. This can give them the confidence and resources to get involved in community activities and initiatives. Reduced financial stress: Financial stress can be a major barrier to community involvement, as it can make it difficult for people to focus on anything beyond their immediate financial problems. By helping people to reduce their financial stress, the service can free up their time and energy to get involved in community activities. Increased financial literacy: By providing financial education, the service can help people to develop the skills and knowledge they need to make informed financial decisions. This can lead to greater financial independence and empowerment, which can in turn lead to increased community involvement. Overall, by helping people to improve their financial well-being, Pakuranga and Howick Budgeting Service can play a valuable role in enabling them to contribute more actively to their community.

Healthy environment approach:	Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes Encouraging a healthy environment approach involves promoting a sustainable and responsible use of resources to reduce our impact on the environment and promote community well-being. Here are some ways that Pakuranga and Howick Budgeting Service could encourage a healthy environment approach: Raise awareness: The service can raise awareness about the impact of our actions on the environment by providing education and resources to clients. This could include information on reducing waste, conserving water and energy, and using sustainable transport options. Lead by example: The service can demonstrate a commitment to environmental responsibility by implementing sustainable practices in its own operations. This could include reducing paper use, using energy-efficient appliances, and encouraging staff to use sustainable transport options.

Community benefits
Identified community outcomes:
	Data from the NZ Health Survey 2021/22 stated that nearly one in four young people experience high levels of psychological (mental) distress and there is an increase in unmet need for professional mental health support. With the increased in cost of living in the past year, the young adults community not only are experiencing increase mental health stress but also financial hardship. In our current environment there is now an urgent need for more financial help so that the mental health support is provided to our young adults in a timely manner. Our aim is to help close the gap in the unmet need with professional mental health support identified by NZ Health Survey. This early intervention will provide a sustainable approach in minimizing long term mental health impacts in the community if not addressed.
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· People are safe with access to services to support their wellbeing We believe our services provide early intervention for mental health especially for our youth and young adults. By having Counselling services more available and accessible we are providing tools and skills to help our young adults manage mental wellbeing earlier in life and in a more sustainable manner. This is especially so for our Maori and Pacifika communities. Over the last few years our partnership with Tamaki Budgeting Services and Sowers Trust has been very valuable as they refer us clients that are in vulnerable situation and in financial difficulties that are not able to pay for counselling sessions. We have been able to help many of these clients through some deep issues and now have moved on and getting through life independently utilizing skills and tools they have learnt from the counselling sessions. This funding request will continue to help provide this vulnerable community access to counsellor support in a timely manner and provide helpful tools and skills to help manage their emotions, empower them to thrive and overcome challenges.

Community benefits
Identified community outcomes:
	We are a community orientated club providing tennis facilities, courts & clubhouse for all age groups. We have a history of nearly 100 years in the district with strong membership numbers and have a duty of care to these members. While we are planning to move to another site in the next 3-4 years we still need to provide a safe enviroment including clubhouse for members, visitors, interclub players and the whole community. Replacing the gutter will enable us to eliminate a potential accident.
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· Sports and recreational opportunities respond to the needs of our communities All club members, visitors, interclub players and the community at large will benefit. As a club it is our duty and the communities expectations for us to provide a safe and welcoming facility. At the moment this is not he case. As we have to move premises in the coming years we have been doing just the essential maintenance and upkeep of the club house. We are now in the situation where immediate repair is required on the guttering / spouting on one side of the club house. We have a few small leaks in the guttering but now there is one larger more dangerous leak just above the outdoor stairs to the clubhouse. We have painted the stairs numerous times, using no-slip paint and even have put sand into the paint to add to the grip. However the leak is now so bad and no amount of painting can make the steps safe, we must replace the guttering or risk a serious accident. Photo's are attached.

Demographics
Māori outcomes:	· Not specified

Community benefits
Identified community outcomes:
	The community should be confident and feel safe when being at our facility. The addition of cameras will act as a deterrent as well as be a resource for local police in the event of a criminal or suspicious act.
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· People are safe with access to services to support their wellbeing The parking lots on either side of our facility are in fact council assets and for the last 6 months we have seen enough evidence to decide to install exterior cameras to monitor both parking lots and the entrance to our gymnasium. This is supported by the local police (see letter of support from officer Brett Meale) and local constables Steve Webb and Paul Zhao actually visited the club to recommend exterior cameras.

Location:	108 Somerville Road, Howick
Summary:	Volunteers collect, germinate, and grow plants ready for planting into the reserve. Through this extension of forest edge the edge effect no longer affects the canopy speices. This is a coastal forest and one of the best examples available to Aucklanders to visit without the need to travel beyond the city of Auckland
Expertise:	Graham Falla has over 80 years of collecting and growing of natives and freely gives his advise when it is sought. https://infocouncil.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/Open/2019/09/HW_20190916_AGN_7308_AT_files /HW_20190916_AGN_7308_AT_Attachment_69842_1.PDF

Community benefits
Identified community outcomes:
	This restoration work offers the chance for Aucklander's to become "hands on" during the planting days this giving a sense of satisfaction by giving something back to society. The weeding undertaken each week by the weeders ensures that this forest remains in pristine condition and that newly planted species are not smothered; this gives huge satisfaction to those involved and we leave behind an area of coastal forest for the enjoyment of future generations. Stretches of the reserve are now home to a number of different bird species and these birds are able to be viewed by the community in their natural habitat
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· Our large natural areas are enhanced and protected through the eco-sourcing of plants from within the reserve; the growing of these and then the organisation of volunteers to plant these into the reserve. Caring for the reserve by actively removing weeds within the reserve.

We are wanting to offer our membership and players healthy living options which would benefit the entire community.

It discourages players from buying sugared drinks, juices or energy drinks instead encourages consumption of fresh healthy chilled water which quenches thirst at no cost! Helps our community to also save money and not spend on purchasing bottled water/drinks.

	· Empower the community to take environmental action The series of eco-friendly art workshops are to reinforce the need for us all to protect our environment. The different workshop options are designed to be specific and engaging for rangatahi/youth. We will share creative ways to repurpose and reuse items through practical workshop delivery. The workshops will use materials that would be either discarded items or offcuts/items destined for landfill. The series of workshops are an investment in the new generation. Giving opportunity to learn about wasting less and how to turn old items into something new and relevant for them. They will learn skills of working with timber including the use of power tools etc. Practical sessions, learning new and valuable skills along with positive and relatable steps towards protecting our environment.

Māori outcomes:	· Not specified
Accessible to people with disabilities	Yes - The studio spaces are fully accessible for disabled. The whole facility is fully accessible for disabled. If the individuals specific disability does not prevent the person from actively participating in the woodworking project and using power tools then there would be no reason why they could not attend.
Healthy environment approach:	Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Encourage the reduction of carbon emissions or increase community resilience to the impacts of climate change* We are a smokefree venue and grounds. The workshops 'Waste to Wonder' will show youth how to repurpose & upcycle items with low or no waste. Each workshop will will include information and messages on the importance of waste minimisation through handouts. The workshops will improve awareness on what is needed for environmental preservation to take us into the future.

Financial information
Amount requested:	$2400.00
Requesting grant for:	Part payment towards costs of the specialised tutors and part payment towards material costs (largely preparation to repurpose) for the eco-friendly series of workshops. The tutors are fully qualified to teach Rangatahi aged 10+ and must have qualifications in woodworking skills to use all power tools and hand equipment. They must be qualified in the health and safety requirements related to this topic. The tutor fee is an inclusive hourly rate incorporating travel and a contribution to the mobile woodworking equipment used.
If part funded, how would you make up the difference: We could reduce the number of eco-friendly workshops delivered based on the funding received. We could increase the participation fee to cover costs but this is likely to discourage registration.
Cost of participation:	Yes, the cost to participate and compete making an upcycled project in a one day hands-on workshop will be $88

Project: Mental Health and well-being support for fathers
Location:	6 Glenside Ave. Pakuranga, Auckland
Summary:	Many fathers are simply surviving, not dealing with personal challenges/stress in healthy ways. This impacts the health of children and families. We will deliver a pilot programme addressing mental-health and wellbeing of fathers through wilderness based wellness workshops and support groups. The programme will help fathers to develop positive coping strategies, healthy stress management and a safe place to address depression, suicidal ideation, substance abuse, anger management, domestic violence, relationship challenges, destructive parenting and the impact that has on families.
Expertise:	For over two decades, Young Life NZ Trust has delivered wellbeing and mental health services, workshops, and camps for the East Auckland community. We are well equipped to expand our expertise and history towards fathers and family health.
Dates:	07/08/2023 - 15/12/2023
People reached:	120 men will attend the wellness workshops
% of participants from Local Board		100%
Promotion:	We plan to share with participants and the community through newsletters and press release.

Conflicts of interest: Mike Turinsky is an employee of Young LIfe NZ Trust and is a Howick Local Board Member

Community benefits
Identified community outcomes:
	Fathers from the Howick Local Board Area will be able to address mental health challenges and improve their wellbeing, regain balance and health in their personal lives, family life, and work life. The health and wellbeing of fathers has a massive impact on the health of the family and the community. Fathers will gain access to safe and healthy ways to access personal support and health services such as counselling, addiction support, anger management courses, parenting resources and relationship counselling. Utilising our service agreement with local schools, fathers will be offered opportunity to participate in the programme. Children and youth in those families will benefit from improved health of their fathers and from being equipped with parenting tools.
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· People are safe with access to services to support their wellbeing For 29 years, the Young Life Trust has worked with at-risk youth, their families, schools and community groups. Our experience shows us that the most significant contributing factor to problems amongst our youth and families is the health of the father or male figure in the family. Schools, police, churches, and social service agencies have demonstrated the demand to the Young Life Trust to create a tailored programme for fathers to address their own wellbeing and the impact that has on the health of their children, their partners and the community. There is a gap in wellbeing services in our community addressing the mental health and resiliency of fathers. This pilot programme is called Bravo Company. We seek funding to progress this pilot programme.

Demographics
Māori outcomes:	· Not specified
Accessible to people with disabilities	Yes - The pilot programme will be available for people with disabilities.
Healthy environment approach:	Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes The wilderness based wellness workshops take a "no trace" approach to waste. The wellness workshops will be smoke free and promoted as such. Part of the programme is based on health lifestyle including food and drink. A big part of the programme is centred around encouraging active lifestyles and improving fitness as a way to address stress management and positive coping skills.

Financial information
Amount requested:	$3000.00
Requesting grant for:	We seek funding for safety equipment (GPS device, Personal Locator beacons, etc.), to send 1 staff and 1 volunteer on wilderness first aid training course, and a trailer to transport gear for the wilderness wellness workshops.
If part funded, how would you make up the difference: We will prioritise in order, 1. the first aid training 2. safety equipment 3. trailer purchase. If we do not receive funding, we will have to delay the programme and seek other sources of funding.
Cost of participation:	This funding request is to assist in the training, safety gear and equipment for the pilot programme, not for the running of the workshops. We intend to apply to other grants for ongoing costs associated with the workshops.

Youthline Auckland Charitable Trust

Legal status:	Charitable Trust		Activity focus:	Community
Project: Youthline support for Howick youth with counselling, mentoring and supervision
Location:	Youthline House, 145 St George St, Papatoetoe, Auckland
Summary:	We are requesting $3,000 as a contribution to the Howick share of $5,190 of the annual cost of $238,000 for Youthline Support Services including counselling for vulnerable youth in the local area and clinical supervision of our counselling and youth worker team who support them. Many of the young people we work with require face-to-face counselling and mentoring and both our youth workers and counsellors require clinical supervision on a fortnightly basis. Last year we supported 1,195 young people from the area with development programmes and mentoring and undertook 1,259 counselling sessions.
Expertise:	Youthline has been supporting young people in need for over 53 years and we have considerable expertise in providing this support. We have built up significant knowledge and experience over this period such that we are recognised as the premier support service for young people in need. Our 120 Helpline volunteer counsellors receive intensive training and close supervision. Colmar Brunton research (2021) shows that over 76% of young people in New Zealand are aware of Youthline. Last year we managed over 144,000 contacts to our Helpline and worked with 14,000 individual young people. In the last evaluation of the Helpline undertaken, 84.9% of respondents felt helped by the service with 90.3% being satisfied or very satisfied.
Dates:	01/07/2023 - 31/03/2024
People reached:	1200
% of participants from Local Board		100%
Promotion:	The Youthline Helpline and Youth Worker and Counselling services are promoted and marketed across a wide range of media including the Youthline website, Facebook page, other social media and various promotional and fundraising activities. And we have an extensive communications contact plan in place. We will publicly acknowledge the local board’s contribution in the Youthline Annual Report, on our website, in social media and on our promotional material.

Community benefits
Identified community outcomes:
	Many of the young people we work with are disadvantaged and often feel lonely, alone, disengaged and desperate with a reduced sense of belonging to family, school or community. Our youth workers and counsellors work with these young people to resolve their issues and support them as they transition to adulthood. We are very active in schools in the area. Adolescence can be a stressful time and having a responsible mentor/counsellor walking beside them can have a significant positive impact on a young person who is struggling to cope with the stresses and strains of daily life. Now, over 3 years after the first lockdown, the stress and anxiety that young people felt as a result of COVID-19 remains for many as an underlying condition and requires great care as we work with our rangatahi going forward. The counselling and programmes that we offer these vulnerable young people provide support, guidance, direction and motivation. These development opportunities encourage them to become positive contributors and leaders in their community – a real benefit to themselves, friends, whanau and the community at large.
Alignment with local board priorities:
	· Rangatahi /Youth in Howick have a voice, are valued, and contribute Youthline has been supporting rangatahi and their families for over 50 years. Our kaupapa/purpose is to strengthen wellbeing through youth voice and youth choice such that young people are empowered within their communities. We are well known as “the number one place for young people to reach out to for support”. 76% of young people are aware of Youthline and 17% of young people have contacted us for help (Colmar Brunton 2021). We are a “with youth, for youth” organisation and the first point of contact for many young people accessing youth development and support services across Aotearoa New Zealand. We are a respected and trusted frontline service that has changed the lives of many people who have reached out in their time of need. The Youthline Helpline is at the heart of our mahi. Young people in need who contact us through our Helpline often feel lonely, alone, disengaged and desperate. They often have a reduced sense of belonging to family, school or community. We aim to ensure that the young people we work with have clear pathways from school to work. And we aim to engender a sense of belonging to their family, school and the community in which they live. In supporting these young people Youthline is very much committed to promoting healthy, safe, sustainable and active lifestyles. COVID-19 has had a profound affect on the youth of Aotearoa and its impact is ongoing. There has never been a more important time to create a sense of belonging, connection and community. The pandemic increased the demand for our services to a significant degree and placed additional pressure on our already stretched resources and we are still stretched. Now, over 3 years after the first lockdown, the stress and anxiety that young people felt as a result of COVID remains for many as an underlying condition and will require great care as we work with our rangatahi going forward. And while the restrictions have largely been lifted COVID is still in the community and our rangatahi remain vulnerable to the distress its presence causes. In essence, for our young people there has been little relief from the stresses and strains of COVID since it arrived. Even now, the COVID shadow lingers – and will do so for some time to come. Our rangatahi will continue to need support under the COVID shadow. We simply have to be there for them as they build their lives and transition from adolescence to adulthood, from school to tertiary education, training and employment. In research undertaken in 2021, 83% of young people said mental health issues, including suicide, are the biggest problem facing youth (Colmar Brunton 2021). This follows a 2020 Youthline online survey with 975 young people and their families where more than 72% of respondents shared that COVID-19 and lockdown have impacted their mental health with young people under 25 more likely to share this than older groups. Youthline supports these young people, acknowledges their issues and is inclusive with a strengths-based, person-centred approach. We very much aim to build engagement and resiliency for young people and and support them in transitioning to adulthood. Youthline services equip youth with skills and insights on how to build self-esteem and improve mental-health, how to actively problem-solve, recover from setbacks and build resilience. Counsellors link them with local support services to assist their ongoing development. Through their improved emotional and self-management skills young people are less likely to fall into helplessness, depression, addictive behaviours, dangerous relationships and unemployment. Our experienced youth worker teams provide individual support, mentoring, development and leadership opportunities to vulnerable youth throughout the Auckland region. For many, connecting with Youthline provides a pathway to a range of personal development and life skills programmes offered by our team including personal development, job skills (e.g. barista training, CV writing and job applications) and learner licence training. All designed to better equip young people to be healthy and active and productive members of their communities. Research shows that when young people are engaged in community activities, linked with whanau, and given the opportunity to participate feel that they are part of something and encouraged to reach their potential, that risk taking behaviour is reduced. Youthline works inclusively with youth, from those young people who are most vulnerable to youth leaders who are championing change. Our clinical support workers counsel/mentor young people identified as needing one-on-one support to encourage and inspire them. They aim to understand the strengths and weaknesses of each young person, then identify goals and milestones and develop a plan for successful implementation and progression. By walking beside a young person and providing positive role models Youthline aims to see every young person become a positive contributor to society with a strong sense of belonging. In terms of our services going forward we know that: 1. There will continue to be a high demand for support coloured by the shadow of COVID 2. We will need to maintain volunteer numbers for our Helpline service at as higher a level as possible to cope with the demand and increased complexity 3. The need for comprehensive training and triage support for our volunteers will be paramount. 4. Our youth worker teams will continue to have a large number of vulnerable young people to work with requiring significant levels of programme resources. 5. Our volunteer and face-to-face counsellors will have a high need for supervision that in particular acknowledges the unique stresses and strains engendered by the pandemic.

Demographics
Māori outcomes:	· Youthline provides support services to young people in need across the ethnic spectrum. Last year 16% of calls and texts to our Helpline presented as Māori, slightly ahead of the 14% of young people aged 15-24 residing in the Auckland area who identify as Māori. 19.7% of our mentoring and face-to-face counselling clients are Māori and 12% of our staff identify as Māori. All of our staff and volunteers are trained on the Treaty of Waitangi. Māori models of health such as Te Whare Tapa Wha inform our work with targets groups of rangatahi Māori. Youthline has a Māori working group (Nga Whetu Poutama) to guide Youthline to increase the organisation’s cultural capacity and inform the work that we do.
Accessible to people with disabilities	Yes - All our services and facilities are accessible to people with disabilities.
Healthy environment approach:	Promote smoke-free messages Youthline Auckland supports the Auckland Council’s Smokefree Policy and its commitment to working proactively with others towards making Auckland smokefree by 2025. We have a smoke free policy in place and can offer support, advice and referrals to young people who wish to give up smoking. We ensure that the young people we work with are aware of our support for making Auckland smokefree and how we can help them if necessary.

Does your project support any genders, ages or ethnicities specifically?

As a “with youth, for youth, by youth” organisation Youthline is committed to supporting all rangatahi with a focus on ages 12-24 years. We have a strong commitment to diversity recognising that our minority communities, including Maori, Pasifika and Rainbow youth, disproportionately experience mental health issues and are less likely to seek help.
A strategic priority is to hold an equity focus on Maori, Pasifika, Rainbow, Asian, Migrant and Refugee youth and young people with disabilities.
We are advocates for youth focus, youth voice and youth choice and providing leadership to ensure young people are prioritised and invested in. Recognising and addressing inequities and upholding safety is very important to us.

Financial information
Amount requested:	$3000.00
Requesting grant for:	We are requesting $3,000 as a contribution to the Howick share of $5,190 of the annual cost of $238,000 for Youthline Support Services including counselling for vulnerable youth in the local area and clinical supervision of our counselling and youth worker team who support them. With the COVID shadow still lingering in the community the need to support our rangatahi is greater than it has ever been.
If part funded, how would you make up the difference: We would not amend our plan as such. Rather we would continue being extremely proactive in applying for funding from a wide range of funders. The total cost of the Youthline Helpline will be $1.576m this year. We receive funding of $226,000 from Oranga Tamariki and MSD contracts meaning we have to fundraise over $1.35m each and every year. Since the arrival of COVID many of our funders have a reduced capacity to provide funding. At a time when young people need our service more than ever we are hugely dependent on those organisations who can provide funding.

We are very appreciative of the previous support of the local board and would be very grateful if the board was able to contribute this time round to the cost of counselling for the young people we work with, supervision for our youth workers and counsellors who support them and our in-school programme resiurces.
More than 3 years after the first lockdown, the stress and anxiety that young people felt from COVID-19 remains for many as an underlying condition and will require great care as we work with our rangatahi going forward. Our work is far from complete.

Risk	Mitigation
Council left with responsibility for the existing access facilities in the reserve indefinitely if the water sports centre is not completed.	The members of the trust are established organisations, and based on the Trust’s purpose, intent and membership, the risk is mitigated and the agreement to lease will provide for certain conditions to be met before any lease can commence. This will protect council from any ongoing lease obligations if the facility is not built. The licence to occupy for the existing facilities will define responsibilities between the trust and council.
Poor management of existing facilities whilst funding is being raised for the marine recreation centre.	The agreement to lease will provide for certain conditions to be met before any lease can commence. The licence agreement will formalise maintenance obligations between the trust and council.
Public safety during the facility’s construction.	During the construction of the marine recreation centre, access to the pontoons will be restricted for public safety.
