Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

As in any other community, our people are united by the language spoken by those who came to NZ from the former USSR. And this unifying language is the Russian language, regardless of the ethnicity of the immigrants living in NZ. Of course, to get the necessary information, advices, other important and interesting materials in Russian - this is what our people need (young and old, new immigrants and those who speak English well) . We know this well, because our people write and call us, asking questions, sharing information or asking for help. This is very important for our community. And the implementation of our information projects in this form is a benefit for Russian-speaking people, regardless of their ethnicity.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     People actively contribute to their community

There are many Russian-speaking people living in Howick and the surrounding area of East Auckland (about 5,000 of the approximately 10,000 living in Auckland). Their activity is well known in Hawick, since the so-called “Russian Days” took place here, which were very successful and covered in the local and central press. Representatives of our organization have always actively helped in holding these events, and were actively covered both in our newspaper and in Infoline. Here it is very important to make an explanation about the term “Russian-speaking community.”
Let me  now briefly give some explanations, without which there are always many questions or even just a misunderstanding. What is the Russian-speaking community in New Zealand?
This is not a community of ethnic Russians, but this is a community of Russian speaking people. These are ethnic Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians, Uzbeks, Kazakhs, Armenians, Georgians, etc. We all come from the former USSR (Soviet Union). We are people who are united by the Russian language and a common culture. This is the basis of our communication and mutual understanding.
Therefore, in the main information project of our organization, the Nasha Gavan newspaper, we talk about people and events taking place in the Russian-speaking space of New Zealand, regardless of the ethnicity of people. We do the same in the broadcasts of our telephone service "Infoline".
According to our estimates, about 20,000 Russian-speaking people live in NZ Regardless of their  ethnicity. Basically, Russian speakers live in Auckland and Christchurch, then Wellington, Hamilton, Tauranga, Rotorua, New Plymouth, Dunedin, Inverсargill. 
 -  Each of the ethnic groups of the Russian-speaking community has its own community organizations and creative teams, where their own cultural, sports and other projects are being carried out. But when some information needs to be conveyed to the majority of the Russian-speaking community, to talk about interesting people or events, these ethnic organisations  turn to us, to the newspaper. Because  people  can learn about representatives of different ethnic groups or about important information in these groups by reading our materials in Russian
So, only in the last two years we had  published interesting materials related to the Ukrainian community, and written about successful people from the Kazakh and Uzbek ethnic groups.
The main aim of the newspaper is to tell about Russian-speaking people from any ethnic group. We publish various materials connecting all of us living in New Zealand. About cultural and sporting events taking place in the entire Russian-speaking community of the country. We write about people for whom the Russian language is the basis of communication and mutual understanding. We also write about everything interesting happening in New Zealand, trying to strengthen existing contacts between people from any ethnic groups, remembering that all of us are  New Zealanders.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

We will scale back the repairs, and postpone bathroom repairs until we can find full funding support. We have undertaken significant facility repairs and replacement of floodlights, turf and costly water leak, detection and repairs over recent years which has drained our cash reserves. We do not have the funds to undertake this work and are reliant on community grants.

In the past seven years, we have the same storms and helping each other, and bless each other between members. When facing difficulties, they ask the association for help, such as the loss of family members, domestic violence, housing difficulties, losing loved ones, etc. , Effectively help members. Because of this, we have established close connections with government functional departments and social welfare welfare organizations to gradually expand the scope of network connection, realize information sharing and transmit relevant information to members quickly.
Members, we have worked together all year after year. Looking forward to the next 2023-2024, we will continue to work hard and continue. Our mobile slogan is "I love my family and support each other." Recently, we have added more venues and time to provide everyone with the opportunity to dance, sing, talk, play cards, play cards and play table tennis, and increase the time of chat and communication to prevent loneliness.
In the end, it is worth mentioning that we have established the Internet webpage for a long time, opened Facebook accounts and help hotlines, which has enabled our association to gain a certain reputation in the community, and also allows us to help more and more people who need help. Essence
Members, there is no grasses in the end of the world, and my heart is my family. I believe that under the collective leadership of the new council, coupled with the continuous efforts of all members, our association will grow and grow, so that we will live happily on this beautiful land.

Teaming up with Roopa Aur Aap Charitable Trust, we provide counselling services through individual and group sessions, addressing emotional and psychological needs. Regular gatherings and workshops on health promotion and active lifestyles further strengthen community bonds. Collaborating with government agencies, we address specific senior citizen issues, advocating for awareness campaigns, policy initiatives. Additionally, our digital class and cultural programs assist seniors in maintaining their cultural identity.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Our projects focus on promoting active health, overall well-being, and an inclusive community, specifically addressing the needs of under-represented members. Initiatives strengthen relationship bonds, reduce loneliness, and cultivate happier families by fostering social connections. Through cohesive community-building services, we encourage mutual assistance, ensuring that members feel valued and integrated. Activities like regular get-togethers, outings, and festival celebrations enhance social connectedness, contributing to a closely-knit society. Maximum participation in events promotes social inclusion and empowers individuals, fostering a sense of belonging. Diverse activities, including awareness workshops, actively encourage community participation, initiating discussions on well-being to promote active lifestyle. Our digital learning classes support cognitive functions and enable social interactions.
For migrants, our initiatives extend beyond support to facilitate cross-cultural integration, aiding their adjustment to the New Zealand environment. Partnering with Roopa Aur Aap Charitable Trust, we offer comprehensive counselling and support services, addressing issues such as family harm and work redundancy. Prioritizing safety and well-being, we contribute to building a healthier, more resilient community. In essence, our multifaceted approach aims to create a supportive, integrated, and healthy community that actively engages its members in promoting overall well-being and inclusivity. The volunteer program facilitates connections and nurtures relationships among youth.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     People are safe with access to services to support their wellbeing

Our project passionately supports the chosen priority by organizing regular senior citizens' meetings and an annual outing, fostering social connections, good health, and overall well-being. Celebrations of festivals and national days actively cultivate diversity, creating an inclusive environment where cultural diversity is valued. Awareness sessions and workshops on health, nutrition, and an active lifestyle are conducted, coupled with raising awareness about elder abuse to empower seniors. Counselling support from Roopa Aur Aap Charitable Trust addresses elder challenges, reducing stress and enhancing social acceptance. Digital learning classes promote computer literacy, facilitating cognitive functions and social interactions. Migrant support addresses relocation challenges, fostering community and inclusion. Emphasizing volunteerism, we harness diverse skills for program implementation, community engagement, and innovation, ensuring our initiatives remain active, healthy, and sustainably enriching for a diverse and inclusive community.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our project is deeply rooted in ensuring inclusivity for individuals with disabilities. Our commitment revolves around creating an environment where everyone, regardless of their abilities, can actively engage and enjoy the benefits.

Continuous feedback from participants with disabilities informs our ongoing improvements, and personalized support, including seating accommodations, is provided. Through these concerted efforts, our goal is to establish a fully accessible space that promotes the participation and contribution of all individuals, nurturing a diverse and cohesive community.

Healthy environment approach:

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

To enrich the event experience and champion sustainability, we can incorporate the following elements into our planning. This strategy not only promotes physical activity but also underscores responsible water usage and provides delectable, health-conscious food choices.
 
Sustainable Materials: Opt. for reusable and eco-friendly materials in decorations, serving utensils, and packaging to reduce single-use plastics and minimize waste.
Incorporate Physical Activity: Integrate opportunities for movement breaks and physical activity throughout the event.
Nutrient-Rich Menu: Ensure the event menu offers a diverse range of healthy and nourishing food options, including vegetarian and vegan choices. Collaborate with local and sustainable food suppliers and caterers, showcasing the use of locally sourced ingredients.

The benefits of our project for community residents are mainly reflected in the following aspects: one is to provide residents with folk dance, Tai Chi teaching, table tennis training, mahjong card game services and art sharing, and the other is to promote community participation  The enthusiasm for fitness and entertainment activities enhances the health and well-being of community residents.  Third, we cooperate with local committees to promote the concept of health and environmental protection, so that community residents can pay more attention to health and environmental protection, and feel the government's care for community residents. It should be noted Tai Chi combines the elements of strength, balance, posture, concentration and calmness. It is a lightweight exercise. It has the following benefits: maintaining cardiorespiratory endurance; increasing body flexibility; improving the balance and swinging ability of the elderly  It has a certain effect on arthritis, osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis and coronary atherosclerosis; it can improve and improve the self-awareness, self-confidence, sleep, and depression of the elderly.

Project: Well-being for fathers

Location:

Howick Local Board Area

Summary:

We have a 3 stage nature-based therapy well-being programme for fathers. Stage one: Volunteer led support groups. Stage Two: 3–6-day wilderness tramping/tenting experiences where participants address their current state of well-being, growth for personal improvement, build trust with their mentor/coach for follow-up, increase self-efficacy and confidence, develop goals, reduce
isolation, build vulnerability, emotional intimacy and a sense of community. And identify individual needs for mental health services, relationship counselling, addiction counselling, anger management, budgeting, life coaching/mentoring, etc. Stage three is connecting the participants to health services available to them and managing the support groups. We take the fathers out of their comfort zone physically, mentally, and emotionally to push them to be a positive contributor to their family and community.

Expertise:

Our team has worked in the community mental health field in Tamaki Makaurau since 2004. We are also very experienced delivering outdoor activities and the development of a wide network of health services, addiction services and parenting programmes.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

We address risk factors contributing to challenges faced by youth and families due to paternal health. Families encounter risk factors stemming from fathers' mental health and well-being. High rates of depression, isolation, anxiety, stress, abuse, and suicide among fathers contribute to these challenges. Societal stigma, especially in Māori, Pacific, and ethnic communities, often prevents fathers from seeking help for their well-being. Schools, police, churches, and social service agencies have highlighted a need for our father-focused program. We address the impact fathers have on the health of their tamariki, rangatahi, partners/ex-partners, and wider whanau. We tackle well-being and mental health concerns providing a non-judgmental space to openly address personal challenges. We facilitate development of support systems and positive coping mechanisms, enhancing their overall health and well-being. We equip fathers with tools and support that improves relationships, manage personal/work spheres, anger management, substance abuse and sustainable mental health. Improving their communication skills, coping mechanisms, and emotional maturity, leading to a reduction in abusive behaviours, negative coping strategies, depression, and suicide. By connecting fathers with a network of social services, including counselling, anger management, budgeting, parenting, and substance abuse counselling, the program fosters more positive relationships with partners, ex-partners, tamariki/rangatahi, and wider whanau.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     People are safe with access to services to support their wellbeing

There is a growing body of research and evidence on men's mental health and well-being in Aotearoa. Many fathers are experiencing mental health problems, including depression, anxiety, and substance abuse. Stigma and reluctance to seek help: Fathers in New Zealand often face stigma and social expectations that discourage them from seeking help for mental health and well-being issues. Fathers’ mental health and well-being needs often require tailored support and services because many men feel that they should be able to handle problems on their own and may be reluctant to seek professional support. Fathers benefit from services that are more focused on practical solutions, problem-solving, activity-based support groups and programmes, providing opportunities for safe and positive personal connection. The problem is reflected in high rates of hospitalization and suicide amongst men, substance abuse and domestic abuse. According to the latest data from the New Zealand Chief Coroner, in the year ending June 2020, the suicide rate for males in New Zealand was 21.9 per 100,000 population (amongst the highest in the western world). Social factors, such as employment, financial security, and social support, can have a significant impact on men's well-being. There has been a concerning increase in domestic abuse. According to police statistics, there was a 9% increase in reported family violence incidents in 2020 compared to the previous year, with a total of 120,000 incidents reported. Domestic abuse is one of the symptoms of unaddressed mental health and well-being in men and has been a longstanding issue in Aotearoa New Zealand, with our country having one of the highest rates of family violence in the developed world. Overall, the research suggests that there is a need for increased awareness, understanding, and support for fathers’ mental health in our communities. This includes addressing social factors, reducing stigma. Addressing these factors can help to reduce the risk of mental health problems and improve overall well-being. Highlighted is the importance of early intervention being critical for addressing mental health problems, improving well-being amongst fathers and avoid long-term complications. Addressing mental well-being for fathers has a positive effect on the wider whanau health and with their tamariki and rangatahi.

Māori outcomes:

·     Māori involvement in the design/concept, Māori focus - tikanga (practices), mātauranga (knowledge), reo (language), Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

We have developed this programme in consultation with iwi. The connection to the whenua as a link to wellbeing is part of that design. The project is focused on the Te Whare Tapa Whā, addressing taha wairua/spiritual wellbeing, taha hinengaro/mental and emotional wellbeing, taha tinana/physical wellbeing and taha whānau/family and social wellbeing. Our connection with the whenua/land forms the foundation. When all these things are in balance, we thrive. When one or more of these is out of balance our wellbeing is impacted. We utiliise tikanga, mātauranga (knowledge), reo (language) throughout the programme as part of the Hauora approach of wellbeing. Māori participation is key to this.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Participants with mental disabilities and physical disabilities have access to our programme. We have accessible equipment to allow those with physical disabilities to participate.

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

As our programme is health based, we will be promoting smoke free messages and healthy food/drink in our material and a healthy lifestyle within the programme. As part of our programme, we will promote waste minimisation with a "no trace" impact. A major part
of our approach is based around encouraging active lifestyle and fitness as a strategy to improve mental health and well-being.

Financial information

Amount requested:

$6108.29

Requesting grant for:

To purchase first-aid supplies, two portable Automatic External Defibrillators and a large  weatherproof tent/shelter for our well-being wilderness retreats.  We must manage health/safety for participants by having quality first aid supplies, portable defibrillators and sufficient shelter during the retreats. Many participants cannot afford to provide their own tent, so we want to provide a large weatherproof communal tent for the participants to utilise and get the most out of the programme. By providing a weatherproof communal tent/shelter, we reduce barriers that would prevent them from being part of the programme. The equipment will be re-used during every wilderness well-being retreat.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

We will have to purchase only the gear that we can afford. The priority is the AED's, first aid supplies and the smaller tent/shelter. The minimum amount of funding the project could continue is $3613.29

Cost of participation:

The cost of participation does not cover first aid equipment and gear. It only covers the programme delivery expenses. The fee ranges from $340 - $650 depending on the duration of the retreat

Project: Refreshing our equipment

Location:

Bucklands Beach Ohui-a-Rangi Playcentre, 50 The Parade, Bucklands Beach

Summary:

We would love the opportunity to replace some tired equipment that we use all year round for outdoor and water play - our most popular areas of play across all age groups. We use water troughs and mud kitchens for all kinds of messy play, that have been a part of our centre since it opened, that desperately needs replacing but we have had to prioritise our spending due to some health and safety risks that were threatening the closure for a short time.

Expertise:

We are all experts of our own tamariki so each month we have a business meeting where we vote for what is our priority for spending. We go through a rigorous process to ensure our money is being spent wisely.

Identified community outcomes:

 

We aim to have an open day per term, so having updated equipment essentially attracts (we hope) more members, which means there are more opportunities for our tamariki to build connections, friendships and support.  
We always welcome the wider community into our centre whether it is to visit a member for a session or to take part in an open day. We welcome and encourage grandparents of children to visit too.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     Rangatahi /Youth in Howick have a voice, are valued, and contribute

By providing equipment that is safe and environmentally friendly this allows our tamariki to explore both physically and mentally. We believe this leads them to feel safe and valued which then allows them to contribute to other learning experiences whether that is via teaching the younger tamariki or using their abilities in a different way that challenges them.  By being a part of the Playcentre whanau, we feel confident that when they go off into the world, they can take these core values with them that we have helped to support.

Healthy environment approach:

Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages

If our equipment can be fixed, this will be our priority.

Dance & Arts Therapy NZ

 

 

Legal status:

Incorporated Society, Charitable Trust

Activity focus:

Arts and culture

Project: STARS Pakuranga

Location:

Te Tuhi, 13 Reeves Road, Pakuranga

Summary:

STARS is a dance-based therapeutic programme that has been designed to support the development of children and teenagers on the Autism Spectrum (and with related disorders including Dyspraxia, ADHD, Anxiety, Pervasive Developmental Disorders, and developmental delays). The primary objective is to assist young individuals in cultivating essential skills, including communicative ability, creative self-expression, social skills, self-soothing, motor skills, and coordination. These acquired skills aim to enhance their active and engaged participation in both home and school environments.
 
The programme consists of weekly sessions spanning eight weeks, with each term accommodating six to eight children. STARS fosters a sense of community, offering a valuable opportunity for tamariki to engage in Dance Movement Therapy under the guidance of trained Dance Movement Therapists.

Expertise:

Established in 2010, Dance & Arts Therapy NZ (DTNZ) attained charitable trust status in 2013. Our therapy team comprises qualified and highly experienced Dance Movement and Arts therapists, rigorously trained in Aotearoa New Zealand or through reputable international organizations. DTNZ prioritizes the safety of both clients and therapists by offering supervision for those facilitating clinical groups, including STARS Pakuranga. This approach not only ensures a sustainable delivery of every programme but also underscores our commitment to maintaining a high standard of therapeutic practice.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

STARS provides essential support for our participants, aiding in the development of verbal language, communication, social skills, emotional literacy, reduced anxiety and tantrums, increased focus, and active engagement in school activities, developmental movement, and sensory integration.
 
Between July 2022 and June 2023, STARS Pakuranga is projected to receive a total of 160 visits. Notably, there was a decrease in participation last year, attributed to the impact of the economic recession. During Terms 3 and 4, approximately 50 visits were recorded.
 
Enabling participants to confidently apply these skills beyond the programme within their whanau, school, and other community settings is crucial for community enrichment. STARS facilitates social connections for individuals facing challenges in mainstream after-school activities, fostering a positive and vibrant community experience through dance and movement.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     People are safe with access to services to support their wellbeing

Our weekly STARS Pakuranga sessions are scheduled every Wednesday, aligned with school terms, from 3:45 to 4:45 pm at the Te Tuhi Arts Centre. The sessions cater to children aged 8 to 12 years old in our community who have special needs and disabilities, such as those on the Autism Spectrum and with cognitive developmental delays. We highly value and embrace this population, providing them with the opportunity to engage in the arts under the guidance and support of highly experienced and qualified Dance Movement Therapists.
 
Tanvi Rodrigues, our lead facilitator, have fostered strong relationships with the children in the group and their respective whānau. As participants consistently return each term, a sense of community, connection, and trust between them and our therapists continues to thrive. Significant progress has been observed in the well-being, self-confidence, communication, social skills, coordination, and overall development of the children.
 
Dance Movement Therapy is an expanding field in Aotearoa, offering a space for young people who may face challenges in mainstream dance groups. It provides an avenue for them to come together, express emotions, be active, listen to music, and acquire new skills to enhance their well-being, including improved motor function, increased mobility, self-confidence, communication, and self-soothing skills.
 
Recognizing the unique challenges faced by children with special needs and disabilities and their families, particularly during challenging times, our aim is to serve as a constant support for this community. The STARS Pakuranga sessions provide a weekly activity that children can anticipate regardless of external circumstances. If necessary, we are equipped to host these sessions online. Moreover, the program offers families or caregivers of those with special needs a moment of respite, contributing to the overall well-being of everyone involved in the disabled community.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - STARS is dedicated to addressing the distinct requirements of individuals with disabilities and special needs, making them our primary focus. The project has been carefully crafted with specialized considerations, taking into account sensory factors such as light, music volume, and prop colors. Privacy is prioritized by minimizing visible distractions outside the room, and we maintain a higher team-participant ratio. This ensures that personalized 1-on-1 support can be readily provided to clients, if necessary, without disrupting the smooth flow of the session.

Healthy environment approach:

Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

Every workshop we offer is conducted in a smoke-free venue, fostering a smoke-free environment. Trained arts therapists design and lead each workshop with the goal of enhancing mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing, ultimately contributing to individuals leading healthier, smoke-free lives. Emphasizing sustainability, we strive to maximize recycling efforts. Our therapy team actively encourages participants to reflect upon and engage with nature whenever possible, recognizing the positive impact it can have on overall well-being.

Harlequin Music Theatre Incorporated

 

 

Legal status:

Incorporated Society, Charitable Trust

Activity focus:

Arts and culture

Project: Harlequin extra mic bodypacks

Location:

Harlequin Musical Theatre

Summary:

While we have some existing sound gear that we use for our shows, we find that we have to hire additional sound gear for every single show - e.g additional microphones for actors and band, additional speakers, fold back etc. This costs us between $3,500 to $6,000 per show. Purchasing more microphone body packs will bring this cost down.
We've recently had part of a wider application confirmed by the Howick Local Board, but unfortunately we had to forfeit this as it was only working with some other upgrades (that were not confirmed). We are in the process of returning this amount.

Expertise:

Harlequin Musical Theatre has over 60 years' experience in delivering community based theatre. We have a proven track-record of implementing upgrades to the theatre. Some examples of previous years include, partial upgrade of our sound & lighting systems, new signage, new storage container and new theatre curtains. Our financial position is strong through good decision making and show choices, but the cost of additional Sound gear hire for each show is challenging.

Dates:

06/05/2024 - 30/06/2024

People reached:

5000 per year

% of participants from Local Board

80%

Promotion:

While we won't specifically promote this project (the purchase of additional microphones), we will acknowledge the board's contribution in our monthly newsletters and show programmes.

 

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

This investment will bring our Sound hire cost down and thus save us money over time. This will also help us to continuously provide
both top community performances for all ages and groups as well as a functioning hire space for local youth theatre and dance groups.
And to provide a successful training and experience base for a diverse range of members in the areas of music, song, dance, drama, orchestra, lighting, sound, design, construction and theatre administration.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     Support local arts, culture, music and heritage activities and experiences

The Harlequin Musical Theatre is recognised as the Hub of musical theatre in our community. Our theatre seats 140 patrons and we have staged over 100 shows in the last 60+ years. We produce three (3) shows, reaching up to 5,000 people in our wider
community across all ethnic groups, including audiences, cast, crew, bands etc.
Our objectives are to provide quality performing arts for the education, entertainment and cultural enlightenment for the wider Howick and Pakuranga community. And to provide a successful training and experience base for a diverse range of members in the areas of
music, song, dance, drama, orchestra, lighting, sound, design, construction and theatre administration. 
We also hire the theatre to a number of local youth theatre and dance groups for their performances.

Yes - The theatre has a wheel chair entrance, specifically allocated seating and accessible toilet. We will also put on a relaxed performance -  a special show to welcome those who will benefit from a more relaxed performance environment, including people with sensory and communication disorders, an Autism Spectrum Condition or a learning difficulty.

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

We are committed of recycling and avoiding waste wherever we can, including the re-use of props and sets. We also use mainly rechargeable batteries for our wireless microphone packs.
Cast members almost always have dance movements during the show. We also rent the theatre to regional Youth theatres and dance schools. Our licensed bar has free tap water and non-alcoholic drinks as cheapest options. Food is always provided.

Highland Park Community Creche Incorporated

 

 

Legal status:

Incorporated Society

Activity focus:

Sport and recreation

Project: Purchase and Installation of Equipment Shed

Location:

47 Aviemore Drive, Highland Park, 2010

Summary:

Purchasing and installing a new storage shed to ensure that outdoor toys, equipment and resources are kept safe from the elements and remain in working condition for our tamariki. A new watertight shed will also allow us to store indoor items, enabling us to better utilise our indoor space for tamariki play and learning. A new shed is also required for staff and tamariki safety.

Expertise:

As a committee run centre we have experience in delivering all our projects. We have a lead teacher and the entire committee work together to help deliver this project and similar projects.

Dates:

02/05/2024 - 31/08/2024

People reached:

32 enrolled tamariki across 5 days with most attending at least 2 days

% of participants from Local Board

100%

Promotion:

We can publicly acknowledge the local board through our Facebook page.

 

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Highland Park Community Creche offers small, nurturing sessions where children feel safe and supported and whanau trust that their loved ones are well cared for. Currently the creche is affordable for, and attended by, single income families, low income families, beneficiaries, solo parents and families of special needs children. Due to a 30% rent increase and the general increase in operational costs, we cannot afford to maintain our centre without grants. The new shed will ensure our equipment and resources are safe and fit for purpose for the tamariki and safety is prioritised.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     Sports and recreational opportunities respond to the needs of our communities

HPCC has a large outdoor play space for the tamariki where they can utilise our wonderful equipment such as trikes, bikes, balls, waterplay resources, climbing frames, slides etc. However, the current shed in which this equipment is stored is no longer fit for purpose from a safety and watertightness perspective. Purchasing and installing a new shed would mean our equipment would stay in good condition for tamariki to continue to use. Staff and tamariki safety will also be prioritised by completing this project.

Project: Safety windows installed into the club

Location:

52 Paparoa Road, Cockle Bay, Auckland 2014

Summary:

Replacement of old and dangerous single glazed windows that are beyond their life expectancy for new double glazed windows. Existing windows smash when balls kicked inot them with people below. Safety glass can't be installed due to the age, windows starting to fall out when opened. Really not good

Expertise:

Being Rugby League we are predominantly trade related players so scaffold and painting will be done by players and supporters to reduce costs. Basically this is not an issue as it is what we do for jobs outside of Rugby League

% of participants from Local Board

Promotion:

We would announce this thrpough social media, the local Howick radio station and local howick and pakuranaga times newspaper, like we did when we had help with our kitchen 3 or 4 years ago

 

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Safety of the members and visitors from falling glass when windows are broken from balls kicked off the field into the building, this happens 2 or 3 times a year currently.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     Sports and recreational opportunities respond to the needs of our communities

Howick Hornets is a long term supporter of local sport and community, growing quickly in the premiership womans division, winning the senior competition in 2023 and also winning the Fiji 9's competetion. This is the first international team to ever win in Fiji. Howick hornets have always been involved from juniors through to other codes to be hosted at Howick. We are very community orientated and need the windows replaced as they are now dangerous. We have had windows break with glass coming into the crowds below and is only a matter of time before someone gets hurt.

Maoris are involved in the voluntary scaffold erections and painting, Maoris will also benefit as this will make the property safer for their Whanau and community. Maori are heavily involved in Rugby League and our club

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - All community will benefit wether they are disabled or not as the site will be safer

Healthy environment approach:

Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes, Encourage the reduction of carbon emissions or increase community resilience to the impacts of climate change*

All materials will be ethically recycled as possible and the safety of the new windows will make it a safer and better club to be involved with, allowing better opportunities for more members to be encouraged into a safer property. It will also reduce heating inside as double glazed windows keep the heat/cool inside the building alot better

All genders and ethnicities will benefit from this project

 

Financial information

Amount requested:

$43750.00

Requesting grant for:

The windows themselves and the installation of the windows
The following is included:
•           Nine of the large windows in total looking out onto the field
•           We will remove the existing windows
•           Supply and install new windows with double glazing
•           New architraves 
•           No allowance has been made for scaffold or painting, (club supporters doing this)
•           Windows will be fitted with safety latches which only allow the windows to be opened about 100mm
•           We will remove all rubbish from site and leave things tidy and good to go.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

Due to the risk involved we feel we must change these windows. If only part of the payment is received we will need to either replace only part of the windows, or try and raise funds through other means like club raffles or contacting community support groups to assist

Project: Latvian Gambit - 2024

Location:

13 Reeves Road, Pakuranga

Summary:

We need chess equipment in order to run our external tournaments. We would like to organise a "large banner" that can be shown to puplicise our annual event the Latvian Gambit tournament which features over 120 players - mostly juniors. We also require additional chess sets - owing to the number of players taking part in this event - the leading one-day chess tyournament in New Zealand

Expertise:

Our club has run this annual event for over 40 years. One of our LIFE members has also organized a number of international tournaments offering international experience to up and coming young players. The key barrier to having such tournaments is the expense of doing so - hall hire for such an event is about $1,500 for just one day.

Project: Howick Playcentre Mud Kitchen and Water Play

Location:

Summary:

Purchasing a mud-kitchen, shelving and water play equipment for the tamariki attending Howick playcentre to use. The equipment will allow the tamariki to grow and explore their active playing skills, gross motor skills, coordination and balance skills.

Expertise:

As a whānau-led centre we have experience delivering all parts of our service including all projects. We have a Treasurer, Grants Officer and Equipment Officer who will lead this particular project.

Promotion:

We can publicly acknowledge the local board through our Facebook page and through the Playcentre community at meetings, which will be recorded in the meeting minutes.

 

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Playcentre is a whanau organisation based on the philosophy of whanau-tupu ngatahi - Families growing together where: we empower adults and tamariki to play, work, learn and grow together. We honour Te Tiriti o Waitangi and celebrate people's uniqueness. We value and affirm parents as the first and best educators of their children, so that families are strengthened and communities enriched.
 
Our focus is empowering whanau to teach their tamariki through play so they can explore their world while feeling safe, supported and nurtured. We support the growth and development of whanau and their tamariki so they may make meaningful contributions to their community. We believe that Howick community benefits greatly from this support. Because Howick Playcentre is run completely with whanau volunteer hours this fosters a deep sense of community between the families involved. This spreads out to the community as families who have less in common due to their cultural backgrounds become close and connected due to the positive shared experiences of their tamariki and as parents supporting their tamariki.
 
Tamariki learn to move their bodies and develop and collaborate through play, starting their journey into sport and recreation in the community.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     Sports and recreational opportunities respond to the needs of our communities

Howick Playcentre is in need of a mud kitchen and water play equipment for the tamariki to engage with. We currently have a very limited amount of suitable water play equipment.  
 
Messy play gives the tamariki the opportunity to experience a wide range of sensory experiences and helps them to learn through play. Water and messy play assists with developing hand-eye coordination, and motor skills.  Exploring through messy play helps children gain confidence in and control of their own bodies, including active exploration with all the senses.  Messy play experiences are often enjoyed as a group and provides opportunities for the tamariki to work alongside each other.
 
Water play supports exploration learning, where tamariki gain confidence and control of their bodies, whilst also giving the opportunity to develop useful social skills whilst playing alongside other tamariki.
 
The messy play and water play equipment are beneficial to our tamariki's wellbeing, particularly 'Be active, me kori tonu" and mean they have exposure to activities to help develop their co-ordination, social interactions and control and movement of their body from a young age, setting them up for success and enjoyment of sport/recreational activities later in life.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Using a “te whare tapa wha” process; (evaluated by the NZ Council for Educational Research as best practice), our Specialist Teachers via a co design process with teachers develop a health education support programme to meet the unique needs of each community, and as ongoing home learning with the child’s whanau. 
 Understanding identity, uniqueness and respecting their culture is embedded in our philosophy “Everybody is unique, everybody is magnificent, every person deserves respect”.
 
Supporting tamariki from bullying, online safety, nutrition, we teach resilience and stress management tactics, understanding the development of their brain through maturation and the impact of alcohol and substances in this critical development period.
 
The outcome from our collaborative approach being tamariki’s specific needs are supported by our Specialist Educators, who support teachers to extend this beyond the time of our presence. Teachers later report of improved outcomes through our independently managed feedback and evaluation process.
 
Working with Anxiety NZ and Autism NZ we offer teacher development in the classroom and via our online webinars which identify classroom management techniques for children suffering anxiety or autistic children and other issues relevant to the needs of the community.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     Rangatahi /Youth in Howick have a voice, are valued, and contribute

In bringing Life Education Trust Healthy Harold programme to primary and intermediate schools in a safe and inclusive learning environment without pressure or prejudice with tamariki and rangatahi who are open to discussion and learning. Our feedback shows that our tamariki and rangatahi retain a significant amount of learning through this environment. We are proud to highlight that we enter the schools by invitation, not by right - so the schools must value what we deliver to ensure a re-booking. On completion of their lessons, each pupil is given a take-home pack/workbook, this pack when taken into the home is pivotal in extending the child’s learning and as a discussion document extending the messages of health and wellbeing into the family, whanau, and community. 
 
Our programmes give our youth the best skill-sets to enable them to have the highest self-esteem/self-worth & values to enable them to achieve personal, career & community aspirations.
 
 
NOTE:  
          Workbooks are available in English or Te Reo.
          In the 2023 year, Life Education delivered its lessons to 6,193  children and youth across the Howick region at a cost to the charity of  $166,715.56  [$26.92 per child]

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·     Māori focus - tikanga (practices), mātauranga (knowledge), reo (language), Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

As previously written by using a te whare tapa wha approach the key elements of our programmes are brought to Tamariki in the safe environment of a standalone mobile classroom with its four walls we represent the four walls of a wharenui which are made up of - physical wellbeing, mental wellbeing, family, community and social wellbeing, spiritual wellbeing. We advocate that everyone is unique, and everyone is special, and how they should be proud of their culture in themselves and how they should protect themselves and their environment.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - We are thrilled to visit every school we are invited to with many having students with learning & physical disabilities. We ensure that every student is included by offering sensory appropriate resources including workbooks in Braille. We have a mobile wheelchair ramp & wheelchair lift to ensure all our students can access our safe mobile classrooms at the same time.

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, Encourage the reduction of carbon emissions or increase community resilience to the impacts of climate change*

Substances' is one of the five core subjects we teach to students. We discuss & role-play the decision-making processes they may come across & go through when seeing their friends & peers smoke or they are offered a variety of substances to smoke. We talk about the effects smoking has on your brain, body, finances & making decisions. A Pull Apart Torso - full medical school teaching standards (with 28 parts) is used to illustrate points. Latest research is used from all health sectors in our lessons. We are the largest external programme provider working in schools.
 
Many of our lessons talk about reduce, reuse & recycle and the ways individuals & the community can work together to improve the environmental health of the community.
 
Our programme has an extremely strong thread through it promoting about leading an active life and choosing healthy food and drink options, particularly water. 
 
We will be working with whanau groups to enable Life Education Trusts messages to be an integral part of our communities to fulfil our wish of multi-generational education to ensure all ages have equal opportunity to be involved & have a positive impact in and on each other's lives which includes living an active lifestyle and how it benefits all aspects of our lives.

 

 

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

The project is for Tamariki years 1-8, all genders and ethnicities are treated equally and without prejudice. One of Life Educations' key foundational pillars is that each child is unique and special - we encourage tamariki to be inclusive of all people acknowledging their uniqueness, and differences whether they be cultural, ethnic or attitudinal.

Community

Project: Lifekidz Trust Staff  Safety Training, and Disability Accessible Swing

Location:

The Depot   Lloyd Elsmore Park   Sir Lloyd Drive   Highland Park   Auckland 2010

Summary:

We'd like to upgrade our outdoor playground, by purchasing and installing a disability accessible basket swing. This type of swing is the only type on the market that is safe for children and young people who have paralysis of limbs, are unstable on their legs and are wheelchair users. This swing gives them an opportunity to come out of their chairs, be outside and experience the feelings of freedom and flying, equity amongst their peers who use regular swings. Several children can join together in the swing, enabling friendship and connection. 
We'd like to conduct refresher first aid and seizure training for our staff team, so they are able to keep our young attendees safe.

Expertise:

Lifekidz has been established for 15 years, running after school and school holiday
programmes for children and youth with special needs through this time. Our Board includes
parents of children and young adults with special needs, who know this world and what is
needed. Happiness and safety are our priority, and we have a locked, coded, high entry gate
to make sure our premises are safe and secure. Our high ratios of staff:attendees make sure
no one is ever left alone or without a companion. Our facilities are accessible and step-free
for everyone to participate, our activities are well researched and inclusive to all.
We make sure our staff receive regular first aid and seizure training.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Having a centre in the community for children, young people and school leavers who live with special needs, disabilities or high health needs is of huge benefit to the whānau raising and supporting them. It provides community belonging and gives our attendees a 'club' to belong to where they can connect and play with others outside their home. For these young people, play dates are rarely possible due to their additional needs, and life at home can be very isolating. 
An important part of our programme is to take our young people out into the community to local reserves, the library and shops, in small groups.. This raises the visibility of Disabled people in the community, promoting conversatioon around access and inclusion and enables community members to meet them, benefitting all. First aid and seizure training ensures they are safe both inside and outside the centre and these community interactions can continue. 
Purchase and installation of a basket swing enables our Disabled young people can enjoy an activity to benefit their wellbeing, increasing their happiness.and ensuring their community facility is meeting their needs. Settled and happy young people contribute to stronger family units in our community.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     People are safe with access to services to support their wellbeing

Children and young people attending Lifekidz are amongst our most vulnerable in the community. Many of our attendees have profound, lifelong disabilities and high health needs, some of them needing 1:1 care and supervision. Having this centre to attend gives them equity with their peers, they can attend after school and school holiday programmes which provide fun, active recreation, friendship and connection, essential for their wellbeing and belonging, which offsets loneliness and isolation. Having play equipment they can access to join in with all the children in the playground is very essential for their wellbeing, so they can access the same experiences as other children, that can't be experienced in the home. Training of staff in first aid and seizures ensures we meet their safety and wellbeing needs as our priority. This will increase the confidence of our staff to know what to do in an emergency, prior to health professionals arriving if they are called. This training will dovetail with another project which is a review of our health and safety policies and procedures and an update to the health and safety manual.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our target participant group is children, young people and young adult school leavers with permanent, long term disabilities, some of whom
have very profound disabilities and need a high level of support. We also have children
attending who have seizures and are tube-fed. Not many after school or day programmes cater
to these needs.
Part of this funding will go to purchasing a much-needed piece of accessible playground equipment which is the only product of its type to be truly accessible to all children and young people with disabilities, including the most profound. 
The rest of the funding will go towards first aid and seizure training for our staff, essentiial for the care and support of young disabled people.

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

We know how important snacks are to keep hunger at bay. Our afternoon tea includes fresh
fruit and an array of interesting, healthy treats, and on occasion hot nutritious meals often
prepared by our day programme in the morning. Water is first choice for drinks avoiding single use plastics.
Smoking and vaping are not allowed anywhere on the premises, either inside or outside.
Plenty of team sports and opportunities to be active are offered, and attendees are
encouraged and supported to take part.

 

 

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

This project supports children and young people from 5 to the age of 21 who have special
needs and disabilities, their siblings and whānau, and Disabled young adult school leavers who are unable to hold down a job but need the socialisation and connections that work usually provides. We have attendees from many different
ethniciities and cultural backgrounds such as Māori, Pacific Peoples, Asian - Chinese and
Indian, African, Pakeha.

 

Financial information

Amount requested:

$20000.00

Requesting grant for:

To contribute to the cost of purchase and installation of a disability accessible swing and installation of safety surfacing underneath, at the Lifekidz Centre for children and young people with special needs. This funding will help contribute to the costs of refreshing and updating first aid and seizure training for our staff team.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

We would need to make some further funding applications to have enough funds for the two aspects of the project to go ahead.
It is difficult to put a minimum amount needed, but we would be very grateful for as much as the Local Board would be able to authorise towards this project.

Cost of participation:

After School rate is $46 incl gst. per day Adult day program is $70 for High Needs and $108.87 for Very High Needs per day. However we reduce this for families struggling to meet the payments due to finacial hardship.

Additional information to support the application:

Teddy, a very special Mobility Dog epitomises the transformative power of these incredible companions. 
 
He has found his forever home where his presence has made a profound difference. 
 
 XXXX had been bullied because of his autism, and he stopped leaving the house.
 
He has brought a ray of joy into their lives and become an integral part of the family, providing the vital support needed to navigate day-to-day challenges with newfound confidence. 
             
I used to have to sit in his room and wait for him to go to sleep but Teddy calms him and helps him go off to sleep.”

Project: East Meets West

Summary:

We want to organize an event called East meets West. The event showcases professional musicians from the Indian community with New Zealand-based western musicians together on one stage. The musicians will perform a musical repertoire that will be a blend of both ancient Indian music with contemporary Western jazz music. The participants in the events will be professional musicians and University music graduates who studied Jazz and Western classical music. This program is the fourth edition of its kind and we have done a similar event at Bucklands Beach War Memorial Hall and Mt Albert War Memorial Hall before. The program was highly appreciated by the local community for many years, people have been asking to re-produce this musical event.

In this way the children can raise their awareness of environmental protection and recycle their waste. This will help them to protect the natural environment and preserve the purity of New Zealand.In addition, we are planning to add a new basketball class to give children more physical activity and help them learn basketball skills and how to work as a team.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Our project delivers a range of community benefits by addressing immediate needs and promoting long-term well-being. To start, we provide supermarket vouchers to enhance food security, ensuring that individuals and families gain access to essential groceries. This initiative not only mitigates hunger but also fosters the overall health and nutritional well-being of community members.
 
Our provision of warehouse vouchers enables clients to acquire a diverse array of essential items, spanning from household goods to personal care products. This contributes to an elevated quality of life, positively influencing daily living conditions for those in need.
 
The project's distribution of petrol vouchers facilitates transportation, allowing community members to access vital services, attend appointments, and participate in social activities. This not only strengthens connectivity but also supports mental and emotional well-being by removing barriers to essential resources.
 
In summary, the community benefits derived from our project extend beyond immediate relief, creating a cascading effect of improved health, enhanced living conditions, and heightened accessibility to crucial services. By addressing a spectrum of needs, we actively contribute to constructing a more robust, resilient community grounded in principles of inclusivity, support, and shared well-being.

·     People are safe with access to services to support their wellbeing

Our project of supplying vouchers to those in need directly supports individuals who are safe and have access to our service, contributing to their overall well-being in several ways. Firstly, by providing supermarket vouchers, we ensure that individuals and families have access to essential groceries, promoting food security and nutritional well-being. This not only addresses immediate needs but also contributes to their overall health.
 
Secondly, offering warehouse vouchers enables our clients to obtain a variety of essential items, from household goods to personal care products, enhancing their quality of life and daily living conditions. This support extends beyond mere sustenance, positively impacting their well-being by addressing practical needs.
 
Lastly, providing petrol vouchers facilitates transportation, enabling individuals to access vital services, attend appointments, and participate in community activities. This not only fosters a sense of connectivity and inclusion but also supports their overall mental and emotional well-being by reducing barriers to essential resources and services. In essence, our project acts as a holistic support system, addressing both immediate necessities and contributing to the broader well-being of those in need.

The junior section of the club has made a unanimous decision to move away from its traditional pistol-based race starting system to an electronic timing system.  We are conscious of the safety concerns associated with storing firearms and using them in public spaces and are aware that many children find the sound of a gun unsettling.  Ensuring the safety of athletes, officials and spectators is paramount.  A move to a fully-electronic starting system will mitigate these concerns. We are seeking funding to assist with a full upgrade of our race-starting system.

Expertise:

Starts system will be operated by Athletics New Zealand graded officials.  Starts and results teams have been in these roles for at least three seasons.

* More pleasant, less intimidating environment for those attending events at the athletics track especially children
* More environmentally-friendly.  Reduced air and noise pollution for those living close to the athletics track and other park users
* Reduced risk of burglary/theft * System can be easily used by a range of athletics track users including schools and community groups; no restrictions, supervision or training is required

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     Sports and recreational opportunities respond to the needs of our communities

Following the Christchurch mosque shootings, there was a widespread call for stricter gun control measures with many New Zealanders expressing a desire for increased restrictions on firearms.  Whilst only 'blanks' are ever used for starting races, the club is aware that it is not socially responsible to be discharging firearms in a public place.  In addition, for a range of reasons, some members of the club community find the use and sound of a gun to be unsettling and potentially triggering.  Therefore we are responding to the needs of our community by moving away from a pistol-based race starting system to an electronic system.

Additional information to support the application:

Electronic starts system consists of electronic starting pistol and amplifier.  A large amplifier has been recommended as we are using the electronic pistol in an outdoor, windy, environment.  Pistol is linked to tablets that run the Sprint Timer software - recording the start and finish time of each lane.  Lasers and tripods (with the bullseye level to ensure they are level) are used to accurately measure running distances, with this data also added into the Sprint Timer system.  The hand-held timers are linked to the starting system to record times for middle-distance track races which are not run in lanes.

Location:

Summary:

We would like to install a bike track along the side of our building and a loop around the front of the building for tamariki to ride bikes and scooters on. This would stop them being brought through the main building where babies are often on the floor and give bigger kids the opportunity to be able to ride them properly on a track promoting balance, gross motor skills and co-ordination.

Expertise:

We currently provide sessions for tamariki where they are using the balance bikes we currently have but would like to extend this learning by having a proper set up.

·     Sports and recreational opportunities respond to the needs of our communities

Encouraging tamariki to learn how to ride bikes not only improves their physical health but also gives them the skills needed to be able to travel without a car in the future. Many kids are not learning how to ride bikes as it isnt safe to be out on the busy roads and families aren't teaching these skills to their children. Many of our tamariki are currently enjoying riding the balance bikes that we have purchased but we dont currently have the set up to allow them to practice following paths.

Project: Sweet Art's Howick Community Mural

Location:

The side of the Howick Community Centre building, overlooking the Howick Green on Picton Street in Howick Village.

Summary:

To extend our impact, we aim to lead a community mural project in Howick Village that brings together a local artist and the community. The project involves the creation of a mural with an outlined drawing of native Aotearoa birds, allowing community members to then actively participate in painting it, adding their contribution to a public piece of art.

Expertise:

Our local-born artist, Graedon Parker, is an experienced mural designer and painter
Our Sweet Art Co-owner, Amy Morrissey, is a project manager by trade

Dates:

% of participants from Local Board

Promotion:

To promote the community painting day, we will engage a number of local channels. Firstly, we are hoping to promote the event through an article and/or event announcement in the Howick Times to reach a local audience. We will also use our existing social media platforms to promote the event, including Instagram. We would also like to collaborate with local schools and businesses, by distributing posters and flyers. In all our promotional efforts, we'll be sure to publicly acknowledge the generous support of the local board, including all social media post and promotional flyers/posters. Our strategy ensures widespread awareness and participation, fostering a strong sense of community involvement and support for this community day.

 

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

This project offers numerous benefits to the Howick community. Firstly, we hope it will bring together community members of all ages and backgrounds to collaborate on a shared artistic endeavour. By actively participating in the painting process, community members will not only be contributing to the creation of a vibrant public artwork but will also be creating a sense of belonging and pride in their neighbourhood. 
 
The mural's location is at the heart of Howick, providing a visual focal point for residents and visitors alike. The mural will enhance the area with colour, vibrancy and beauty. Additionally, the project promotes creativity and self-expression, empowering individuals to embrace their artistic talents and share their unique perspectives, regardless of their creative expertise. 
 
Furthermore, we hope the mural will be long-lasting, serving as a testament to the collaborative spirit and cultural richness of Howick, hopefully for generations to come. Overall, this project contributes to social cohesion, cultural vitality, and the beauty of Howick, all while fostering a sense of connection and pride.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     People actively contribute to their community

As described earlier, we want to produce a mural that the community is actively involved in creating. The design outlines will be painted by our locally-born artist, Graedon Parker, leaving the community to contribute their own brushstrokes and creativity to transform the blank canvas into a vibrant public piece of art. 
 
By physically engaging in the painting process, the community will not only leave their mark on the mural but also develop a sense of ownership and pride in their neighborhood. This hands-on involvement promotes a deeper connection to the community and instills a sense of responsibility towards its upkeep and enhancement, ultimately fostering a culture of active participation and collaboration.
 
We also want the community painting day to be a vibrant celebration of Howick, that brings the community together in more ways than to paint the mural. We hope to include the involvement of local businesses, with food stalls, live music, and collaborative art projects, to create a lively atmosphere that not only supports these businesses, but also showcases what makes Howick such a special and thriving community.

Māori outcomes:

·     Māori focus - tikanga (practices), mātauranga (knowledge), reo (language)

The design of our mural draws inspiration from the awe-inspiring landscapes and native flora and fauna of Aotearoa. Through this homage to our country's natural beauty and our community's connection to it, our mural serves as a reminder of our collective responsibility to nurture and protect the taonga of Aotearoa for generations to come.  
Caring for our environment is deeply rooted in Māori tikanga, reflecting a profound respect for Papatūānuku (Mother Earth) as a living entity essential to Māori identity, cultural practices, and interconnectedness with all living beings.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Ensuring inclusivity for all, our event is committed to accessibility for individuals with disabilities. Our venue of choice has wheelchair access, and the mural itself is accessible to paint from a wheelchair. We've taken proactive steps to ensure the event will be a sensory-rich environment with the mural being accompanied by music performances.
 
Additionally, we welcome feedback and suggestions to continually improve our accessibility measures, ensuring that everyone can fully participate and enjoy the community event.

Healthy environment approach:

Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encourage the reduction of carbon emissions or increase community resilience to the impacts of climate change*

Fostering a culture of care for both our community and the environment lies at the heart of Sweet Art's values. With a deep commitment to sustainability and community well-being, we're implementing eco-friendly practices throughout our business and this event will be no different. We will ensure we action waste reduction strategies and source healthy food and beverages locally. 
 
In addition, our community mural design is adorned with native New Zealand birds, serving as a reminder of our interconnectedness with nature. We hope that highlighting the beauty of Aotearoa's natural environment, that the mural will instill a sense of environmental responsibility among locals, while inspiring a deeper appreciation for our natural surroundings and the importance of safeguarding them for generations to come.

Project: Training cafe for people with intellectual disabilities

Location:

Te Tuhi, 13 Reeves Road, Pakuranga, Auckland

Summary:

Te Tuhi, with Rescare Homes Trust and the School of Psychology, University of Auckland, have established Aotearoa's first training cafe for people with intellectual disabilities within Te Tuhi, an art gallery and community centre in Pakuranga. The cafe project provides in-house training and supported paid employment for people with intellectual disabilities and is designed to provide the trainees with a supportive environment to expand their hospitality experience with an aim to finding open employment. The cafe project is a non-profit social enterprise. The cafe currently operates at a loss but is working towards being fully self-sustaining and expanding the scope for training and employment for people with intellectual disabilities.

Expertise:

Rescare, Te Tuhi and the University of Auckland have been delivering the project since 2020. The input of cafe professionals meant we were able to identify skills that are needed for someone to be successful in the hospitality industry. The input of the University of Auckland allowed us to ensure that the training process is evidence based and effective. Working with Rescare and those it supports meant the training programme was created in conjunction with people with disabilities. Our aim is now to grow the cafe project to a point that is self-sustaining.

Dates:

01/05/2024 - 31/10/2024

People reached:

12 Trainees each year, plus 70,000 visitors from a diverse range of communities who visit Te Tuhi

% of participants from Local Board

Promotion:

The Training Cafe at Te Tuhi generates significant positive press and extensive social media coverage. The Local Board is acknowledged as a cafe supporter and will continue to be acknowledged on promotional material.

 

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The benefits to the local community are profound. The project promotes an inclusive society, where people with disabilities can gain meaningful, paid employment. Often people in the community are unsure how to interact with people with a disability. Children are taught not to stare. Adults awkwardly avoid eye contact and conversations, often seeing the people with disabilities as “in need” and “dependent”. Having a group of people with disabilities taking control of their lives, and being productive contributing members of society in an open community integrated location means that there is an opportunity for the community to have a different interaction with people with intellectual disabilities that may change their perception.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     People actively contribute to their community

This project is all about empowering people with disabilities to show their strengths and live a full and meaningful life. This project is designed to not only support the trainees to have an experience, but to be able to learn skills that can provide a real and meaningful change in their life through opportunities for interaction with wider social networks and open employment. This project benefits our community and helps people to help themselves, promotes community wellbeing, supports vulnerable people and helps people to feel that they belong to and can take part in their community. This project provides an often invisible population, people with disabilities, to demonstrate their value to the community and the community to learn and grow as a result.

For Te Tuhi, the cafe provides an essential service for its many community groups and gallery visitors. Te Tuhi are investing in running the cafe at a financial loss to support the training programme and is fundraising to support this activity. It is anticipated that within 3 years this non-profit social enterprise will be fully self-supporting, adding significantly to the service that Te Tuhi already provides to the local community.

Project: Howick Community Cat Desexing Programme

Location:

Howick Local Board Area

Summary:

The Howick Local Board supported an introductory community desexing programme for the local area in 2022.  This saw us play an active role in desexing, vaccinating, microchipping, registering, insuring and rehoming unwanted cats and kittens across Howick, to reduce the environmental nuisance of allowing them to breed.  We wish to extend this programme significantly in 2024 following the success of our initial pilot.

Expertise:

Our founder has been managing projects of this scale for 16 years.

Dates:

01/05/2024 - 30/04/2025

People reached:

1000

% of participants from Local Board

100%

Promotion:

We will acknowledge the local board's contribution on all social media posts throughout the Howick region.

 

Environmental benefits:  As an organisation, we work to protect and enhance the natural environment by tackling the problem of unwanted cats breeding and preying on native birds in two ways:
1. By actively desexing, microchipping, registering and placing unwanted cats and kittens in responsible family homes where all their needs are met
2. Nursing sick and injured birds to full health, and releasing them back into the local environment.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The Howick community will benefit in several ways:
1. They will be able to access FREE desexing for the cats that they wish to keep
2. We will remove unwanted cats and kittens from the region, assess their suitability for adoption, desex, vaccinate, microchip, register and place them into forever homes
3. This will reduce the negative environmental impact of unwanted cats being left to breed throughout the region
4. This programme works in tandem with our native bird rescue and rehabilitation programme, which sees us take in sick and injured native birds, nurse them back to full health, and release them back into the local environment.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     Empower the community to take environmental action

When cats are not desexed, the environmental impact is enormous. We have helped families who have started out with a single female kitten, who through three breeding cycles in one year went on to product THIRTY unwanted kittens. When left to breed, cats are often left to fend for themselves, leading to them having to find their own source of food. They can very quickly become an environmental nuisance.  We work to protect and enhance the natural environment by actively desexing, microchipping, registering and placing unwanted cats and kittens in responsible family homes where all their needs are met.
 
The Howick Local Board previously supported our pilot desexing programme in 2022.  We wish to extend this programme significantly in 2024.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·     Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

We find a large proportion of the families we are assist are Maori families living in lower socio-economic areas of the local board area, where cats are most commonly left to breed.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - In our experience, people with disabilities often fall into lower socio-economic areas where there is a particular issue with cats breeding, as families find it difficult to cover the cost of desexing.

Healthy environment approach:

 

This programme unfortunately doesn't encapsulate these particular principles, instead it focuses on preserving and enhancing the natural environment within the Howick area.

 

 

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

Our programme is open to everyone

 

Financial information

Amount requested:

$9500.00

Requesting grant for:

We are seeking funding for the veterinary costs associated with this programme.  This includes desexing, vaccinating, microchipping and any additional veterinary care these cats and kittens require.  In the last twelve months, our veterinary costs sat at just under $130,000 + GST.  Our total operational budget for this period was $335,000.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

We would reduce our scope of work to align with the level of funding the board is able to provide.

Project: Breaking the mould: critical remediation work for Pakuranga School interior

Location:

Pakuranga School, Howick Historical Village, 2R Bells Road, Pakuranga Heights, Auckland 2010

Summary:

We are seeking funds to support mould removal and remediation on the interior of Pakuranga School and the repainting of the same. This work is necessary improve the space for the health of our visitors, especially the school children and teachers who use the space daily, and for the integrity of our collections, particularly the Māori taonga display. We are requesting funding for:
1. Mobile scaffolding;
2. Mould removal with Resene Moss and Mould liquid concentrate, highly efficient and recommended for situations such as this; and
3. Stripping, sanding, painting of the interior post-mould removal.
 
We recently received funds through Auckland Council Regional Historic Heritage Grants RHH23/24051 to install a 10kW heatpump, which will abate any future mould growth.

Expertise:

Our Facilities Manager, Phil Sutton, has the experience and expertise to oversee this project successfully, as does our Board President, John Osborne.  Both men have backgrounds in engineering and the built environment.  They have both worked, recently, on earlier projects, with the companies from which we received quotes for this remediation.  As a team, they will quickly, safely, and effectively manage the mould removal and repainting of the interior.

Building/site accessible or visible to the public:  The building rests within the footprint of Howick Historical Village.  As noted above in Community Benefits, Pakuranaga School is one of the most mobility friendly buildings onsite.  We would affix a permanent sign inside Pakuranga School with the logos of the funders on it, as well as share the information on our website and social media accounts.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The funds we are seeking would benefit all students, visitors, staff, and volunteers who spend any amount of time in the building, as well as our collections and taonga that are stored or displayed in the space. The mould is unsightly, creates a musty odour, and could
lead to significant health issues if people spend extended periods of time in the space. With the installation of the heat pump, kindly funded through Auckland Council Regional Historic Heritage Grant RHH23/24051, we will be providing safe temperatures for students, educators, and teachers - no more coats and visible breathes for the duration of their time in the building.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     Support local arts, culture, music and heritage activities and experiences

Pakuranga School is a key feature in the Village and important as an education centre, activity hub, green room for filming, and gathering space during inclement weather. As one of the larger buildings in our collection, it also takes on the role as an exhibition space for important Māori and pākehā artifacts the Village possesses. One of our most valuable taonga is a Māori waka that was used to transport supplies of wood for fuel, kumara, potatoes and other items of trade. It is positioned on the wall, off the floor, and sits in dialogue with Māori material culture and artifacts on display toward the front of the building, and pākehā histories and material culture on the opposite wall. The central space of the room also hosts temporary displays, as it did an installation of heritage European quilts presented in juxtaposition to historic and contemporary Tivaevae at our June 2023 Live Day.
 
The mould currently creeping up the walls and spreading across the ceiling presents the same conundrum as do dirty windows. People only notice windows if they are dirty, not if they are clean. Our visitors notice and comment on the mould, and sometimes the smell. If we are able to secure funds to remediate, paint, and prevent the mould in this building from growing again, our visitors could focus on what is on display, on offer, or happening in Pakuranga School, not the unsightly walls.

·     No Māori outcomes identified

 

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - In addition to the various uses set forth above, Pakuranga School is one of the most easily accessible buildings on site, which is important because the heritage nature of many of our buildings means that people with mobility concerns are not able to access the interiors of some buildings. They can access Pakuranga, however, due to the wheelchair accessible ramp out front and the unencumbered space within the interior.

Healthy environment approach:

Promote smoke-free messages

There is no smoking or vaping allowed at Howick Historical Village, as noted by signage upon entrance to the Village.

 

 

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

It is a behind-the-scenes project and therefore will support all our visitors.

The Howick Little Theatre Incorporated

 

 

Legal status:

Incorporated Society, Charitable Trust

Activity focus:

Community

Project: Howick Little Theatre Roof Renewal

Location:

Howick Little Theatre, 2R Bells Rd, Lloyd Elsmore Park, Pakuranga

Summary:

The theatre's concrete tile roof is now 50 years old and starting to fail, resulting in damaging leaks letting in rain that is causing internal issues and costly repairs. We have had roofing experts, including a master builder, assess the situation and we have been advised that it needs to be replaced. Changes to the Building Code mean it must now be replaced with long-run steel because of the low pitch in several places. HLT is just starting to recover from the huge financial hit of the Covid years and this is a massively expensive project, so we need to seek funding from several sources.

Expertise:

Since the 1980s, HLT has done renovations/additions to our building in Lloyd Elsmore Park. We were fortunate to receive interest-free loans from Manukau City Council through the Shared Responsibility Scheme, which were all repaid in a timely fashion (unlike some other groups), then grants through the council's Community Facilities Partnership Scheme. All projects were completed on time and monies properly accounted for, the most recent being 2009 – a multi-toilet and kitchen renovation project that cost over $100,000. We are confident we can work with the recommended roofing company to achieve the desired outcome. NB: When HLT was inspected by council staff prior to our lease agreement being signed, we were told we represented the gold standard in building maintenance.

Promotion:

We plan to keep our supporters, members and audiences up to date with the amount of money raised and the progress of the project. Any money received from the local board would be widely acknowledged in our emailed communications, on our social media pages and on our website. We would also alert local media to the project and any financial support we receive in the hope they will report this to the community.

 

Conflicts of interest: Ian Milnes, a council employee, is a member of Howick Little Theatre.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Since it was built in 1974, the Howick Little Theatre building has been used by many other groups and individuals from the local board community, including Russian youth theatre, Farsi (Persian) language theatre, Chinese dance groups, touring theatre professionals, art displays, exercise classes, netball refereeing events, Zonta garage sales, improvisation groups and annual concert performances by the St Andrew's Big Band. It is, of course, used for our own purposes as well, which include professional workshops, regular acting classes for students aged 6 to adults and many live theatre seasons. We make the facilities available at reasonable prices for anyone to hire at times the building isn't being used for HLT events.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     Support local arts, culture, music and heritage activities and experiences

Howick Little Theatre has been active in the Howick Local Board community for 70 years, providing onstage and offstage theatre opportunities, training, acting classes, professional workshops and entertainment to many, many thousands of people in that time. We want to ensure that our building continues to be available and usable for all our theatre-based activities and for other community groups to use, including the 500 Club, Zonta and the St Andrew's Big Band. This requires us to have a roof that does not leak and result in ongoing costly repairs that can mean closing parts of the building to the public whenever we get a heavy rain event such as a cyclone.

Role

 

 

 

 

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·     No Māori outcomes identified

 

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Once the roof has been renewed, we won't need to worry any more about blocking off access to internal parts of the building whenever the floor has been affected by leaks and made off-limits until repairs can be done. In previous leaking events, the corridor to our mobility toilet has had to be blocked off, leaving no toilet facilities for people with limited mobility or in wheelchairs.

Healthy environment approach:

Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages

All the materials from the old roof will be recycled whenever possible, and we have chosen as many environmentally friendly materials as possible for the replacement roof and soundproofing.

 

 

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

No, because the theatre is used by all genders, many different age groups and many ethnicities.

 

Financial information

Amount requested:

$60000.00

Requesting grant for:

Roughly a third of the cost of the whole roof renewal. NB: we expect there may be extra costs involved once the roof comes off, as there may be issues as a result of the persistent leaks that have not yet been uncovered. We got three quotes for the roof job, including one from a master builder. We have opted for the lowest quote.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

Having consulted extensively with experts in the field, we firmly believe the whole roof needs to be replaced at the same time. It cannot be done in parts. Therefore there is no way to cut costs. We also need the extra sound proofing because unlike the present concrete tiles, long-run steel does not deaden the sound of rain particularly, as we have noted during visits to the Pumphouse and Glen Eden Playhouse. Also Pumphouse staff strongly urged us to avoid the situation they have whenever it rains, namely the actors on stage can't be heard.

Cost of participation:

No, but given the significant cost of the roof renewal, we are asking our supporters, members and audiences for donations towards the project.

Project: Facilities Maintenance and Balls purchase for 2023-24

Location:

The Howick Tennis Club 90R Wellington St Howick Howick Auckland 2014

Summary:

The club is responsible for providing well maintained facilities and tennis gear to encourage new and existing club members to participate in Tennis.
Part of this is to ensure players have the correct equipment and adequate facilities to encourage player satisfaction. This application is a request to cover the cost of nets cord, strapping, windbreakers, and balls for 2023-24. These are a significant cost to a club that struggles to keep membership fees affordable in very challenging times. This funding is a crucial source of income to the club.
Support for this application would greatly assist to control ballooning costs and help meet our goal of maintaining and providing good quality facilities for our members and local Howick Community.

Expertise:

We are a Tennis Club, that has operated in the local community for 120 years and over that time we have developed skills in the management of a local sports club.  We are required to provide well maintained facilities and balls to the membership, as such we are constantly involved in club maintenance and upkeep of the facilities and looking for ways on how to better the experience of the club's facilities for the entire local community and support membership growth.  This is so important we have a maintenance officer as part of the Club Committee for the constant upkeep fo the facilities.

·     Sports and recreational opportunities respond to the needs of our communities

The Club is required to provide well maintained facilities to cater for club play, Auckland interclub competitions and tournaments for both junior and senior members and affiliates. We have both senior and junior interclub players as well as providing junior and senior coaching programmes to encourage participation at all ages and levels. We also organize exhibition matches and host other clubs for various tournaments throughout the year. 
Well maintained club facilities and serviceable equipment especially key items such as tennis balls and good quality nets to allow players to enjoy player satisfaction, and which in turn encourages regular participation.
 This investment also enhances both the club’s and local community’s sports and recreational image and forms an integral part of the club’s drive to increase community participation by providing good facilities.
The Club is required to provide new balls for all club play, tournaments and interclub competitions. The club also provides the Club Coach with balls for all club coaching, including new members and junior players intent on improving their ability. We cater for approximately 130 juniors players who we provide free coaching opportunities to.
As mentioned above we believe good quality facilities and gear(balls) will encourage player satisfaction and therefore participation. A well-presented and well-equipped facility reflects well on the local Howick community and creates a welcoming image for the entire community as a whole to enjoy.
Tennis is a sport for life for all age groups and is a healthy way of life which the club supports for the local community.

It will be a family friendly event with many activites.

 

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

It will allow us as a community group to get more kids on the water in a safe and enabling way for youth of all ages and sizes. Along with that, it will help build their confidence while on the water and allow us to educate them about water safety in a fun and engaging way. Our current fleet of kayaks is not adequate enough to facilitate the large increase in membership we have had as a group.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     Sports and recreational opportunities respond to the needs of our communities

Our project supports this priority by allowing youth in our local community to get on the water and enjoy what our awesome city has to offer! It helps them work together as a team, allows them to overcome their fears, and learn a new skill - all while keeping them active and teaching them about water safety at the same time! We play an active role with the youth in our community through the use of our interactive and engaging programme. This project will allow us to create more opportunities for youth to experience it!

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·     Māori focus - tikanga (practices), mātauranga (knowledge), reo (language), Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

Our group incorporates tikanga Māori through a wide range of techniques and methods. The Scouts Aotearoa award scheme incorporates Māori practices to help teach our younger generations about Māori and how it is part of New Zealand culture. The small groups within the different sections in our group have Māori names and we incorporate Māori greetings and language into each of our term nights. Once we have finished the project, we will have a blessing ceremony where we will invite the local Iwi.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Scouts Aotearoa is open to all people with disabilities, and Howick Sea Scouts is no exception! Our award scheme is also designed to include disabled people in all aspects, so that they don't feel left out and can enjoy every moment of Scouting!

Healthy environment approach:

Promote smoke-free messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes, Encourage the reduction of carbon emissions or increase community resilience to the impacts of climate change*

Since we are affiliated to Scouts Aotearoa, we follow and work towards the Scout Award Scheme. This scheme has been developed over many years throughout the world and incorporates activities that challenge and develop our youth into well-prepared citizens. Some of the topics covered in the award scheme include raising awareness around smoking and the negative impacts it causes, how to look after our planet through recycling and minimizing waste schemes, staying active and sticking to a healthy diet and the great benefits of doing so, and looking after our planet in terms of green house gasses and pollution and how we can reduce our carbon emissions where possible. This is gone over in lots of detail and is youth-led, which allows our Rangatahi to engage even more and come up with potential solutions. All our facilities are Smoke and Vape free as well to further reinforce the message of smokefree zones.

Financial information

Amount requested:

$9484.36

Requesting grant for:

For the whole project please

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

We would just need to get less kayaks than originally planned. This isn't the end of the world but would really restrict our ability to get more youth on the water.

Cost of participation:

We charge a fee of $130 per term for our youth to take part in our programme. However, the majority of this fee goes towards our National Body (Scouts New Zealand), our insurance bills, power bills and water bills. We have very little left over which is mainly used for maintenance on the buildings and boats. We also have plans in place for kids who are facing financial hardship, and payment plans to allow kids to keep attending no matter their situation.

Project: One Years Rent

Location:

Summary:

One years Rent.

Expertise:

being a Toy Library for our community.
A majority of our current volunteer committee has been running the Howick and Pakuranga
toy library since 2019

Conflicts of interest: Gemma Chuah the Howick Pakuranga Toy Library joint chairperson is an Auckland Council employee. (Healthy Waters Department, Infrastructure and Environmental Services).

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Howick Pakuranga Toy Library gives families/whanau the opportunity to hire instead of
buying toys. This helps whanau who would not otherwise be able to afford to do so, have
a range of quality age appropriate toys, and has the added benefit of empowering the
local community to take environmental action and reducing the impact of toys on the
environment Sustainability has always been a huge focus for Toy Libraries, as cheap, plastic toys are so
accessible these days but as they tend to be over packaged, used sparingly, break and then
are then discarded to landfill. We reduce, reuse and recycle by purchasing only good quality
toys, often secondhand, or wooden, which last the test of time and are able to be used by
many families over and over again.
United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, Article 31, states, play contributes to
health and wellbeing of children.
With the recent closure of Papakura Toy Library we are now one of the most southern toy
libraries in Auckland so have larger number of suburbs utilizing our services, ensuring
children nearby can benefit from a variety of age appropriate toys and the educational
opportunities and play experiences they provide.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     People actively contribute to their community

The Howick and Pakuranga Toy Library is operated by a committee of volunteers and many members regularly help out on a voluntary basis. We encourage our members to volunteer but do not enforce it.  We provide an opportunity for children to learn about being a part of their community and the nature of citizenship. When attending the library to choose toys, seeing their families volunteer at the library, and through learning to share, take care of communal toys, and take turns.   The toy library gives families the opportunity to hire instead of purchasing toys. This helps families who cannot afford to do so, giving them the opportunity
to play with quality toys.   As well as for families to experience toys which they might not usually want permanently in their own homes such as large outdoor toys.  We aim to provide a friendly, warm and welcoming place for families to come. For parents who have been out of the workforce this can be a helpful step into the next phase of getting back to employment and/or contributing to their local community. For families who are new to the area or even New Zealand this is an opportunity to get to know and be involved in their new community.
 
Sustainability has always been a huge focus for Toy Libraries, and increasingly so as more people are becoming aware of the important environmental concerns. Cheap, plastic toys are so accessible these days but they are not good for the environment. They tend to be over packaged, used sparingly, break and then are then discarded to landfill. We purchase good quality toys, often secondhand, or wooden, which last the test of time and are able to be used by many families over and over again. We repair where we can and replace parts.  When the toy is at the end of their life, we put it in our matariki toy sale for a few dollars for members
to purchase. Play develops healthy happy children, who as confident learners grow to be active members of their community.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·     Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

My two daughters and I are Maori. I am joint chairperson of the Howick and Pakuranga Toy library so Maori staff are providing access to the toy library for the community and my daughters are privileged to enjoy playing with the range of toys available including many of
which are in te-reo, or toys, puzzles and games such as traditional Maori dress up clothing,
raku sticks, whare and waka peg whanau.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our Toy Library is located on the ground floor a very small distance from our car park, with designated disability parking, so even very
large wheel chairs have access. Our toys are suitable for children with a range of abilities, by hiring toys at the right stage
for the learning abilities of children is a real benefit for parents and caregivers of children with disabilities as well as the benefits of play for the children themselves.

Healthy environment approach:

Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

Sustainability has always been a huge focus for Toy Libraries, and increasingly so as more people are becoming aware of the important environmental concerns. Cheap, plastic toys are so accessible these days but they are not good for the environment. They tend to be over packaged, used sparingly, break and then are then discarded to landfill. We purchase good quality toys, often secondhand, or wooden, which last the test of time and are able to be used by many families over and over again. We repair where we can and replace parts. When the toy is at the end of their life, we put it on the shelf for a few dollars for members to purchase. We reduce, reuse and recycle our office resources as much as possible. This avoids and reduces the amount of waste sent to landfill and the pressure on raw materials and production. This also models this environmentally conscious behaviour to children, and our zero waste goal. 
 
Active lifestyles in kids, these kinds of toys can be cost/space prohibitive to families as they are often expensive and take up alot of space.  
Hire don’t buy is a toy library mantra we provide a huge range of large and small outdoor
toys such as bikes, scooters sea saws, ball games, water toys, sand toys, and slides which encourage tamarki/children to move their bodies and be active promoting healthy lifestyles for a fraction of the cost of purchasing these toys to own.

 

 

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

Our Toy Library tries very hard to maintain as diverse a range of toys as possible, as by having access to diverse multicultural toys from a young age we promote awareness of other skin tones and cultures, and ensure that our community know society is not one shade. It reduces the chances of children being singled out of social groups based on how they look or where they come
from.  We have Maori related toys including traditional dress up, whare and waka play sets with peg people and several te reo games and puzzles. We have Chinese and sign language blocks and puzzles and international musical instruments. We also recently
updated some of our existing toys to be more diverse with international food sets to add to our kitchen toys and Chinese and African dolls for our doll houses.  Our toy range is targeted towards 0-6yo, we do have toys for tamariki older than this but less of a range.
We are not gender specific and actually encourage going against gender stereotypes with toy selection.
https://howicktoylibrary.setls.com.au/ has the range of toys now available for viewing on our fantastic new database.

Project: Tread Lightly Caravan school visits

Location:

Sancta Maria, Mission Heights and Wakaaranga primary schools

Summary:

Our project is for the Tread Lightly Caravan to visit three primary schools in the Howick Local Board area. These schools are Sancta Maria (2-10 May), Mission Heights (13-16 May) and Wakaaranga Schools (29 October- 5th November).-  Due to unprecedented high 2024 school bookings we have a shortfall in our operational budget which amounts to 25% of the delivery cost for the programme at these schools.  The remaining 75% of funding is being supplied through existing philanthropic and commercial sponsors alongside some revenue from school charges which we keep to a minimum. 
The tamariki at the schools will have the opportunity to experience our award-winning environmental education programme.Local Board members and the media will be invited to attend the visits.

The Tread Lightly Caravan has been visiting schools since 2009 and our second mobile classroom, the Tread Lightly Drain Game since 2017.   Over this timeframe we have visited more than 800 schools, hosted more than 80,000 students and an estimated total of close to one million people, including teachers, whanau and community event attendees.  Our proposed project team including registered teachers and environmental assistants are therefore highly experienced in delivering the Tread Lightly programme at schools.
 
Our Founder and Chairperson Gael Ogilvie has more than four decades of environmental management experience within the public, private and philanthropic sectors.  Tread Lightly admin/operational support staff have a minimum of two years’ experience supporting our educational delivery team.

Promotion:

We would promote the Local Board’s contribution as follows:
 
•           Local Board logo on all communications associated with the project
•           Reference to Local Board funding in all promotional material associated with the three school visits including press releases to media
•           Photographs of the school visits including Local Board signage posted on our digital media and provided to the Local Boards for use in their digital media posts. 
 
We would also invite Local Board members to participate in the Tread Lightly visit at the sponsored schools and provide media with the opportunity to attend at the same time.

 

Environmental benefits:  As a result of this project, tamariki and their whanau will be inspired to make simple changes in their everyday lives that will have environmental benefits including lower carbon emissions, less energy/water consumption and less waste to landfill.  In our experience it is also common for the tamariki and their whanau to become involved in community-led initiatives to restore local native ecosystems.  Over the long term a visit to the Tread Lightly Caravan could trigger visiting tamariki to take a lifelong interest in science and pursue careers in STEM.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The Tread Lightly Caravan educational programme benefits the community by inspiring student, whanau and community action to restore our natural environment.   All students visiting the Tread Lightly Caravan have their photograph taken to take home, holding a pledge which describes an action they promise to take to “tread lightly” on our natural environment..  During our post-visit meetings with tamariki, we reinforce the take-home pledges, and we receive excellent feedback on the changes that have been made in the whanau and in some cases on how this has filtered out into communities.  
We also host whanau workshops with some schools where parents visit the Tread Lightly Caravan after school hours and learn about different ways in which they can protect the natural environment.  Our topics include recycling right and gardening.
Based on feedback received from some of the 800 schools we have visited over our 15 years of operation, visits from the Tread Lightly Caravan can trigger and amplify support for community-led environmental protection and restoration initiatives such as litter blitzes, urban pest-free projects and riparian tree planting that results in more native ecosystem coverage and improved water quality across the Local Board area.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     Empower the community to take environmental action

Our proposed Tread Lightly Caravan project supports the  Howick Local Board objective to ‘empower the community to take environmental action’ “Our hands-on activities showcase how tamariki can make small changes in what they eat, what transport choices they make and how they heat their homes, to reduce their whanau carbon emissions.  At the same time we emphasise the broader benefits from these lifestyle choices which include saving money and improved health.  Visiting tamariki take home pledges to make a specific life style change and implement these with their whanau.
Based on the feedback we have received over the past 15 years, the school children who experience our interactive high-impact activities, take action themselves,  and influence their whanau to take action,  to live more sustainably.  The result is less waste to landfill,  reduced water pollution, lower carbon emissions and in many cases improved health and financial savings.  
Based on our experiences to date Tread Lightly Caravan visits can also incentivise whanau to participate in local environmental projects like streamside planting and pest control.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·     Māori involvement in the design/concept, Māori focus - tikanga (practices), mātauranga (knowledge), reo (language), Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

Our educational korero and activities are based on a mix of matauranga Māori and Western science knowledge of the natural environment.  We use reo and, where possible, explore māori history in the location we are visiting.  Based on our experience Māori tamariki contribute confidently to our korero around the natural environment, because it resonates with their thinking and culture and reinforces their own innate wisdom. 
 
Over the past few years approximately 30% of students visiting our mobile classrooms have been Māori and we are seeking to increase this level of participation.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - All of our exhbits/activities are accessible to students with physical disabilities and there are two ramp accesses to the Tread Lightly Caravan.  As part of our pre-visit to schools we obtain information on any children with special needs and/or disabilities and tailor our programme delivery to meet their needs.

Healthy environment approach:

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, Encourage the reduction of carbon emissions or increase community resilience to the impacts of climate change*

Our mission is to inspire sustainable living, which means that a healthy environmental approach is embedded into our programme delivery.  Our focus is on waste minimisation, energy efficiency, improved water quality, reduction in carbon emissions and creating healthy native freshwater, marine and terrestrial ecosystem.  Where possible we bring in broader environmental health benefits such as exercise (e.g. tree planting, swimming, walking through native forest), personal nutrition (e.g. consuming environmentally responsible food) and healthy homes (e.g. insulation). We believe that living in ways that ‘tread lightly’ on earth supports positive wellbeing and is aligned with te ao Māori worldviews that humans are part of, not separate to, nature.

 

 

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

Our project supports all genders, ages and ethnicities but does preferentially provide opportunities  for school-aged children, Māori and Pacifika and females.  
 
All of our activities and exhibits are designed for school aged children.  As a result they benefit the most from our project but there are also benefits for teachers, parent helpers and whanau from other age groups. 
 
 Our programme is well suited for  M      āori and Pasikia  students given the key messages around respect for our natural environment and the specific korero and practices which are based, where possible on Māori tikanga, matauranga and reo.  Tread Lightly educational programmes are focused on the environment but also provide  excellent Science Technology Engineering and Maths (STEM) based learning.  A recent STEM Alliance Aotearoa survey reported that only 2% of New Zealand’s  STEM roles are Māori, which means it is critical that Māori and also Pacifika students are exposed to STEM learning.   
 
There is evidence to demonstrate that by age 14 young people have already made up their minds about whether or not they will pursue careers in Science. We believe that this early crossroads is a contributing factor to the very low proportions of woman in Science.  
 
A Tread Lightly Caravan experience while at Primary School is a very small part of childhood but it could trigger a long time interest in Science in Māori and in young woman which would have significant benefits for Aotearoa New Zealands future prosperity.

 

Financial information

Requesting grant for:

We are requesting funding for 25% of the costs associated with taking the Tread Lightly programme to Sancta Maria,  Mission Heights and Wakaaranga Schools   This includes all contracted teaching and admin/operational staff time to meet with the schools prior to the Tread Lightly visit, setup, teaching and pack down for a  2-3 day visit to the school, a post-visit meeting, towing and associated administrative tasks including liaison with the Local Board and the media.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

These schools have all booked so we would need to find the top-up for the budget from other funders.

Cost of participation:

Yes - the schools are charged a fee per child attending which contributes to the Tread Lightly Caravan delivery costs

Activity focus:

Environment

Project: Waste Management funding to help revenue for palliative care services

Location:

Totara Hospice Shop Distribution Centre, 42a Ben Lomond Crescent, Pakuranga Heights + Howick Totara Hospice Retail Shop, Howick Shopping Centre

Summary:

Our Ben Lomond Hospice Shop Distribution Centre serves as a vital hub for receiving donations from the public, which are then sold within the local community via our Howick and Ben Lomond stores. Fostering a culture of reuse, repurposing, and recycling. While we deeply value all contributions, it’s important to acknowledge that not all items donated can be resold. In fact 50% of goods that are donated are rubbish, old/broken items that cannot be onsold. As part of our commitment to a sustainable future, we ensure that items that cannot be resold are responsibly disposed of through waste management, thus mitigating environmental impacts. 
However, this process incurs costs, diverting revenue away from essential palliative care services within your local community.

Expertise:

We currently run two Distribution Centres  - one in Takanini (the original) and now one in Ben Lomond Crescent, Pakuranga Heights. These are managed by our retail team who have extensive experience in running charity shops and distribution centres, and this is overseen by our Head of Commercial Development and Retail.
 
We have an internal People and Planet project and also a Business Analyst who provides detailed environmental reporting back on the waste we receive and recycle. We also track our carbon emmissions and other environmental impact strategies we have in place.

Environmental benefits:  Hospice Shop Distribution Centre serve as a vital hub for receiving donations from the public, which are then sold within the local community, fostering a culture of reuse, repurposing, and recycling locally. While we deeply value all contributions, it’s important to acknowledge that not all items donated can be resold. As part of our commitment to a sustainable future, we ensure that unusable items are responsibly disposed of through waste management, thus mitigating environmental impacts.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Charity Hospice Shops play a significant role in empowering people to take environmental action in several ways, such as:
 
Promoting a recycle, repurpose and reuse culture by encouraging people to donate used items instead of discarding them; and by giving these items a second life through resale thus contributing to reducing waste and promoting a circular economy.
 
Hospice Shops also reduce the impact of fast fashion. Hospice Shops provide an alternative to buying new clothes by offering second-hand clothing at affordable prices. This helps combat the negative environmental effects of fast fashion.
 
Hospice Shops also support the local community by raising much-needed revenue to help support the delivery of free palliative care services to the terminally ill and their families. This support helps the overall wellbeing of the community. 
 
Hospice Shops benefit the local community by being a practical and an accessible avenue for individuals to participate in environmental action by making conscious choices in their consumption patterns, reducing waste, and supporting initiatives that prioritise sustainability; while also helping raise funds for the delivery of palliative care, comfort and support to patients and their families in the local community.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

 Howick

·     Empower the community to take environmental action

Proper waste management of unsalebale donations from our Howick/Pakuranga Distribution Centre empowers environmental action in the following ways:
 
Reduction of Landfill Waste: When we receive items that are unsuitable for resale, proper waste management ensures that these items are diverted from landfills. This helps reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills, minimising the environmental impact associated with landfilling, such as soil and water pollution.
 
Prevention of Illegal Dumping: Inadequate waste management practices can lead to illegal dumping of unsellable items, contributing to environmental degradation. Proper disposal channels for these items help prevent illegal dumping, maintaining the integrity of ecosystems and reducing the visual and environmental impact of discarded items in natural areas.
 
The appropriate waste management of unusable donations from our Hospice Shop Distribution Centre is an integral part of environmental action. It helps minimise the environmental footprint associated with discarded items, promotes a recycling, reusing and repurposing culture, and contributes to a more sustainable and circular approach to consumption.
 
Running social media support showcasing the support of the Howick Local Grant and highighting what should not be donated to charity shops will empower the community to start actions to more thoughtful donations of goods.

Requesting grant for:

6 Months worth of Waste Management collection costs.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

We are grateful for any funding we receive. While the full six months of waste management funding would have a positive impact on revenue that in turn would have a direct impact on the care, comfort and support we can offer terminally ill patients and families locally, a partial payment would also be gratefully received. The remaining funds to offset the costs would be sourced from revenue from the Hospice Shops.

Legal status:

Charitable Trust

Activity focus:

Community

Project: How much does society value the wisdom of our elders?

Location:

57 Rosebank Rd, Avondale, Auckland

Summary:

Our project is on-going, with demand driven year on year increases from aged Aucklander's of all ethnicities, binary and non- binary. 
We provide counselling interventions supporting elder abuse recovery; specialist community outreach skilled social work support for aged Aucklanders in crisis through our Community Connectors programme and in addition, we deliver an in-home support programme for aged Aucklander's who are lonely and marginalised.
Our Community Connectors social work services support and assist vulnerable people aged 55+ and older people aged 65+ and specialist aged Asian community interventions and support. Our work is designed specifically to meet the needs of our target clientele. We are seeking Auckland Council Multi-Board financial support for 1 full time equivalent (FTE) Community Connector Social Worker.

Expertise:

Though our legal structure was remodelled and we were re-registered in 2022 to a Charitable Trust, we have been working in the Age Concern space, successfully delivering services, programmes and projects with and for aged Aucklanders since 1940's. We hold a unique space and work effectively to ensure our vulnerable aged 55+ and aged 65+ have a safe space that understands their unique set of challenges. Our social workers, counsellors and trained volunteers meet the needs in an area where experience and compassion are a vital set of skills, ensuring our aged are comfortable with the service being given.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Per annum, on average, our Community Connector Social Workers in Auckland are directly supporting over 1600 older people, helping them to move beyond the life challenges causing them distress and suffering.  We know the demand is increasing because the work they do is sought after, appreciated, effective and life-changing.
Community Connector social workers are skilled in working with distressed aged people, understanding the dynamics and challenges that present later in life.  They add an enormous value and benefit to society, catching our elderly when they start to free-fall, helping them to rebuild their social connections and remain independent for as long as possible.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Howick

·     People are safe with access to services to support their wellbeing

Though we focus on ensuring our aged community members are safe and free from abuse by providing forensic Intervention Services, we also work with ACC to promote and organise strength and balance programmes and ensure they are available to reduce fall rates in our elders.  In addition to strength and balance classes we also promote and provide opportunities to attend health and well-being sessions in pursuit of lifelong healthy active lifestyles and offer social work Community Connectors to help and support our elders to address social marginalisation and the profoundly negative impacts it can cause.
Ours is a comprehensive wrap-around service providing vital life-saving help in some instances and significant quality of life improvements for many other aged Aucklanders. We would genuinely appreciate a grant in support of our work.

 

 

Collaborating organisation/individual

Role

Our Community Connectors will refer aged people to MSD for benefits and to the Age Concern Auckland strength and balance exercise programme. They have the knowledge and links to collaborate internally across our programmes and externally to other organisations.

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, Encourage the reduction of carbon emissions or increase community resilience to the impacts of climate change*

Our Community Connectors are required to, where possible, multi-book clients in the same locality to ensure vehicle fuel economy and less carbon emissions. We will not allow clients to smoke cigarettes or vape in our vicinity. 
Our health and well-being programme will also incorporate the healthy environment principles slides in their promotions work.

 

 

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

We support all genders, binary and non-binary and all ethnicities.
In addition a number of our staff are multi-lingual, with Cantonese, Chinese, Mandarin, Korean and English speaking skills.
Also, our staff are learning too speak Te Reo Maori and our Board is meeting with Maori Kaitiaki to learn how to further align our organisation as a service provider, because nearly 50% of whom we work with identify as being Maori.

 

Financial information

Amount requested:

$57571.00

Requesting grant for:

We need funding of $60,118, being the shortfall in wages for our Intervention Services Manager. This role is pivotal in managing all of our front-line abuse and neglect recovery and counselling services and requires a highly qualified, well experienced and skilled Senior Social Worker, which the incumbent is.
We did an 8 week snap-shot of our service in 2024, identifying the Wards where police and community referrals come from.  Based on this, 56% are from Counties Manukau, 24.53% from Auckland Central and 18.87% from the North Shore, with New Zealand Police being our largest referrer at nearly 50%.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

We will continue to submit grant applications to discretionary grants and every other legitimate source of funding that can possibly support this pivotal role in the delivery of our vital work.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The community benefits provided by Auckland Softball include improved sporting
programmes in the community for all regardless of age, gender or social standing. This is
achieved by providing a safe, healthy and social sporting environment for all participants
from pre-primary school age through to senior players. ASA players feel connected to where
they live, proud to play softball for their local clubs and appreciate the opportunity provided
to strive to represent their association to higher honours within Auckland and further afield.
ASA regularly hosts National and International tournaments at various venues across the
greater Auckland region. These tournaments benefit the community when participants and
supporters attend from outside the region and provide revenue to local businesses including
food outlets and accommodation providers amongst others.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Howick

·     Sports and recreational opportunities respond to the needs of our communities

Howick Softball Club is one of the larger clubs in Auckland Softball.
There is considerable increase in the junior competitions in the area, and it also hosts one of four Tee ball modules for 4-10 year olds.
In partnership with Howick Softball Club, Auckland Softball is focussing on engaging the
increased diversity of the area. Receiving funding helps the ASA keep the cost to our players
of participating in softball as low as possible. This in turn helps us to achieve the aim of
keeping players engaged and involved as well as attracting new participants to the sport,
particularly in these post covid times. Our vision is to be the Summer Sport for all of the
whanau and Softball is a sport where the whole family attends

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·     Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

Over 60% of our members identify as Maori and or Polynesian. We are a sport that greatly
appeals to the Maori/Polynesian community and includes the whole whanau, consequently
we are constantly working to target this ethnic group to improve Maori participation in sport
and promote healthier more active lifestyles.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - People with disabilities who may not be able to compete are still encouraged to come
along as spectators and supporters of friends and whanau who are participating in softball.
All diamonds have wheelchair access, and can provide safe areas from foul balls. The
clubrooms also have wheelchair access.

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, Encourage the reduction of carbon emissions or increase community resilience to the impacts of climate change*

It is Softball NZ and Auckland Softball Association policy that all events are smoke-free and
signage to this effect is in place at all venues. Recycling is always encouraged to reduce
landfill waste. ASA has purchased a water tanker and this is at all events offering drinking
water free of charge. Through playing softball our participants are on the move constantly
leading active lifestyles.

 

 

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

Over 60% of our members identify as Maori and or Polynesian. We are a sport that greatly
appeals to the Maori/Polynesian community and includes the whole whanau, consequently
we are constantly working to target this ethnic group to improve Maori participation in sport
and promote healthier more active lifestyles.
Our sport is equally appealing to both male and female athletes with a significant growth
in the female game over the last couple of seasons. We are seeing the largest participation
numbers in our history and see great things in the future of the lady's game. With softball
being added to the Olympics, the game is seeing a surge in participation and we aim to
nurture the development and growth within ASA.

Community

Project: Recruiting volunteer mentors for boys without fathers in their lives

Location:

300 Great South Road, Greenlane, Auckland 

Summary:

Big Buddy makes a positive difference to boys without a dad in their lives. We match volunteers, good guys from the community, with boys aged between 7 and 14. The Big Buddy relationship offers friendship, support and a good male role model. Big Buddies turn up, spend time with their Little Buddy and come back again and again, it's simple and it works.
At Big Buddy, we focus on the fact that boys develop resilience, build confidence and make better decisions when they have a positive male role model.
Together our Buddies enjoy the simple things in life - walking the dog, throwing a ball around, going fishing, watching rugby, just everyday things that they want to do together.

Expertise:

We have been doing this work since 1998 and have matched more than 1100 boys with a mentor. Our robust and extensive screening process means we have never had any safety issues. Screening includes not only a police check, but a professional psychological screening and interviews with multiple referees to ensure the man is safe and suitable to be left in sole charge of these vulnerable young boys.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Boys with a Big Buddy mentor in their lives are more confident and have better education outcomes. Caregivers consistently report their boys are better behaved and just happier.
Having a positive male role model in their lives teaches the boys what it means to be a good man. They grow up to be valuable members of the community, able to love and care for their own families and contribute to the well-being of others.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Rangatahi /Youth in Howick have a voice, are valued, and contribute

Funding will allow Big Buddy to help boys who do not have a father in their lives. Big Buddy makes a positive difference to boys without a dad in their lives. We match volunteers, good guys from the community, with boys aged between 7 and 14. The Big Buddy relationship offers friendship, support and a good male role model. Big Buddies turn up, spend time with their Little Buddy and come back again and again, it's simple and it works.
There are many reasons why a boy might not have his father in his life and this absence can strongly impact them. Research shows that boys growing up without a male role model are more likely to struggle with anxiety, feelings of abandonment and reduced emotional security. At Big Buddy, we focus on the fact that boys develop resilience, build confidence and make better decisions when they have a positive male role model.
Boys with a Big Buddy in their lives are more confident, because they feel more secure. They’re willing to try new things. Their caregivers regularly report improved behaviour, better results at school and say that their boys are just happier.
The boy feels valued and this increases his self-confidence. Having a man who cares just about his well-being tells him he is worth caring about. Because he feels better about himself, he’ll try new things and learn resilience through coping with failure and success.

Community

Project: I'm Healthy and Get Tested - Anti-Stigma Campaign Continuation

Location:

Auckland

Summary:

HIV is a manageable condition, but still heavily stigmatized causing (i) PLHIV to have higher rates of mental illness; (ii) the wider community to avoid getting tested. Our anti-stigma campaigns aims to (i) reinforce among PLHIV the importance of adherence to treatment for a healthy life; (ii) reduce the social stigma through awareness and empathy; (iii) encourage general population to get tested, know their status and stop HIV transmission in the communities. We want to keep broadcasting our campaigns by putting up posters of our campaign in key locations in sponsoring boards’ areas, and targeting locals through social media ads and online outreach where our peers are on dating apps offering free sexual health advises and referrals.

Expertise:

We’ve been working in this space for 30+ years. Many of our core services are aimed at high-need clients to access and adhere to treatment so they can’t pass HIV on to their sexual partners. We have also administered thousands of free testing since 2008. Our board consists entirely of PLHIV, ensuring that our services are steered by the community. Finally, we have accumulated experience participating in and running educational and community-level events and, most importantly in this case, ground-breaking anti-stigma campaigns, such as Sperm+, the world’s first HIV+ sperm bank, which has travelled the world reaching 500 million people. Other successful campaigns include ‘U=U’ (undetectable equals untransmittable) and ‘Can’t Pass it On’.

Our project itself is a marketing campaign, so it will be advertised through several media, including newsletters, websites, Facebook/Instagram, and posters around the city. We will acknowledge the Boards' contribution by displaying their logos on our sponsors' page for the whole year.

 

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Our campaigns raise awareness on the importance of getting to know one’s HIV status, which can only be achieved through testing. As a result, we deliver increased number of testing year by year. Positive results are immediately linked to treatment and negative results to prevention strategies. This status-neutral approach to our services benefits any individual regardless of their HIV status. This results in communities that are healthier, engaged in their sexual health and at lower risk of HIV/STIs. Both HIV treatment and prevention are crucial for stopping further HIV transmission in our communities. This also reduces the burden on the public healthcare system. 
Reduction of internalised and anticipated stigma allows PLHIV to be more resilient, take control of their lives and return to full participation in their wider communities, often taking on leadership roles in the HIV sector. Anti-stigma campaigns are ultimately aiming to provide better health and wellbeing outcomes to those living with the virus, broadening the community benefits. As an example, last year we welcomed a whole new board, as well as new members, volunteers, and staff, all of whom are living with HIV.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Howick

·     People are safe with access to services to support their wellbeing

Every human being has a fundamental right to a high standard of health. The right to health must be enjoyed without discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation, gender identity, age, ethnicity, or HIV status. 
The continuation of our ‘I’m Healthy and I Live with HIV’ anti-stigma campaign reinforces the importance of knowing one’s HIV status and engaging in care as soon as possible. Ongoing adherence to treatment is crucial to staying in good health, mentally and physically. We have made professional film shots of people living with HIV (PLHIV) in Auckland, sharing their experiences about staying healthy – feel free to check out our website. Anti-retroviral therapy (ART) allows PLHIV to lead happy and active lives potentially as healthy as their HIV-negative counterparts. When treated, HIV can become undetectable and untransmittable, preventing the spread of HIV transmission in our communities. 
HIV stigma stops people from getting tested for fear of a positive result. The campaign tackles this issue through the continuum 'Get Tested > Engage in Care > Stay Healthy'. By increasing awareness, the campaign reduces the population’s fear of getting tested. A positive result should occur in immediate linkage to care whereas a negative one should lead to a prevention strategy, such as PrEP (ART prescribed to HIV-negative people that, when taken as directed, reduces the chance of HIV acquisition by 99%).   We currently have around 10 active members living in the Howick local board area.  We understand this is a small number of residents, however it indicates the importance of communicating our message to these people who likely experience feelings of isolation. Such small communities are oftentimes invisibilized therefore the importance of bringing an anti-HIV-stigma message to the light among the wider community. 
We cannot precise the number of clients who benefit from our free testing as the address is not required for confidentiality purposes. We run 1,200-1,500 tests per year, meaning at least one test for every 1,000 Aucklanders. Therefore, we expect around 150 clients from the Howick Local Board area per year. We want to keep broadcasting our campaign by putting up posters in key locations in sponsoring boards’ areas, and targeting residents through social media ads and dating apps outreach where our peers are online offering free sexual health advises and referrals.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - People with most types of disabilities will be able to see our marketing and printed media campaign online and throughout the city. The campaign also comprises films of PLHIV being interviewed that can be easily enjoyed and understood by people with vision disabilities. It is worth noting that HIV can be considered a disability according to the Human Rights Act 1993, so in a way, our campaign is not only accessible for people with disabilities but also made for some of them.

Healthy environment approach:

Promote smoke-free messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

The campaign connects the audience to the content of our website which promotes healthy living targeted at people living with HIV. Sections of information include quitting smoking, healthy eating and exercise.

 

 

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

In Aotearoa, HIV continues to affect Takatāpui, gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (GBMSM) disproportionately. Therefore males and Māori/Pasifika with diverse sexual orientations are our main target audience in terms of gender and ethnicity, respectively. To them, our campaign aims to reinforce the importance of treatment for leading happy and healthy lives. Furthermore, our campaign has also an anti-stigma intent targeted at the general population in which case no specific gender is prioritized. Moreover, Body Positive is committed to serving the needs of all people living with HIV (PLHIV), inclusive of all ethnicities and social backgrounds, sexual orientations and gender identities. We are especially inclusive of the Māori community through our Māori and Pacific Island representative group Tinana Ora. Our constitution also contains directives to co-opt additional members to guarantee sufficient Māori representation and to ensure that none of the diverse voices in our community go unheard. Around 13% of our members are Māori.

 

Financial information

Amount requested:

$11780.00

Requesting grant for:

$7,780 towards printed media and $4,000 towards digital/social media

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

If we do not receive funding, we will proceed using Body Positive reserves. As these are extremely limited, we will certainly have to reduce the scope of the project, by reducing the investment in social media ads and limiting the areas where posters will be disposed, for example. Needless to say, as we have very limited resources, any amount granted by each board will be truly appreciated.

Summary:

T2C events are held 2-3 times a month across various Auckland suburbs, organised by a dedicated team of three and attended by volunteers and their families. Participants engage in a collective effort to collect litter, which is then sorted into recyclable, compostable, and landfill categories on tarpaulin-covered ground. Any illegally dumped waste is consolidated and reported to Auckland Council for proper disposal. Alongside the cleanup activities, educational sessions emphasise the importance of responsible waste disposal and proper waste segregation, while also promoting the concept of Te ao Mauri to underscore the interconnectedness of all living beings within Papatuanuku.

Expertise:

The Earth Action Trust boasts extensive experience in waste reduction initiatives, with a proven track record dating back to 2014. Notable projects include the "Say NO to Plastic Bags" campaign, Micro-community Recycling Center, RePurpose Community Recycling Centre – Trial, Fabric Upcycling initiatives, Live Lightly for Refugees and climate change forum.  In 2020, we strategically shifted focus to anti-litter and anti-illegal dumping campaigns, featuring comprehensive clean-up efforts and community engagement across Auckland suburbs. With a decade-long presence, we've earned a reputation for delivering on promises. Our commitment to environmental advocacy and community involvement ensures trust and respect within our community.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The community benefits of T2C are numerous and impactful. Firstly, T2C actively contributes to environmental improvement by organizing regular anti-litter initiatives and cleaning activities in streets, parks, and harbours. This directly enhances the local environment, reducing pollution and protecting ecosystems and wildlife. Secondly, through strategic tasks and engagement with diverse communities, T2C raises awareness about the harmful effects of littering and illegal dumping, fostering a sense of responsibility and encouraging sustainable choices. Thirdly, by engaging various communities, including Maori and migrant groups, T2C promotes collaboration and inclusivity, strengthening connections and fostering community pride. Moreover, by setting a goal to increase volunteer participation, T2C not only benefits the environment but also enhances individual wellbeing. Additionally, T2C builds valuable networks and partnerships through active engagement with the wider community, enhancing its reach and impact. Finally, by promoting environmental stewardship and empowering individuals to take action, T2C contributes to a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable future for Papatuanuku.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Howick

·     Empower the community to take environmental action

A comprehensive assessment of New Zealand’s environment, as outlined in the state of the environment report Environment Aotearoa 2022, indicates improvements in certain areas but persistent declines in many aspects of environmental quality, posing risks to human health and wellbeing. One visible manifestation of this environmental degradation is the prevalence of litter and illegal dumping in our streets, parks, and harbours.
Given the lack of awareness surrounding this issue, T2C serves as a platform to raise consciousness about the detrimental effects of littering and illegal dumping on human health and wellbeing through proactive measures, effective leadership, and educational initiatives. While there has been an increase in volunteers and their families engaging with T2C, there remains a pressing need for further action. Consequently, we encourage participants to initiate neighbourhood-led T2C efforts with our backing and support.

Healthy environment approach:

Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes, Encourage the reduction of carbon emissions or increase community resilience to the impacts of climate change*

T2C is dedicated to combatting littering and illegal dumping while fostering a culture of environmental stewardship. Here's how we'll promote a healthy environment approach:
1.         Te Ao Māori Perspective: We'll integrate the principles of Te Ao Māori, emphasising the interconnectedness of living and non-living elements. By highlighting the belief that a healthy environment leads to healthy people, we aim to align our efforts with the Maori worldview as outlined in the Ministry of Environment's Environment Aotearoa 2022 report.
2.         Education: Through educational materials distributed at T2C events, we'll underscore the detrimental effects of litter and illegal dumping on land, air, and water—the very sources of life. We'll emphasize that despite being stewards of the environment, humans are also its largest contributors to waste.
3.         Awareness: We'll raise awareness about the repercussions of leaving streets, parks, and harbours littered, stressing that such neglect can perpetuate further littering and illegal dumping. Additionally, we'll highlight the link between neglected public spaces and increased crime rates, underscoring the importance of maintaining clean environments.
4.         Community Engagement: Engaging the community is key. We'll actively involve individuals in T2C events and major public gatherings, encouraging ongoing participation. By fostering a sense of ownership and responsibility, we aim to cultivate a community-driven approach to environmental preservation.
5.         Behavioural Change Campaigns: Launching behaviour change campaigns will be central to our approach. We'll strive to instil responsible waste disposal habits and discourage littering and illegal dumping through targeted messaging, social norms interventions, and incentivized initiatives.
6.         Partnerships and Collaboration: Collaboration is essential for success. We'll collaborate with a diverse range of stakeholders—including community organizations, businesses, schools, and government agencies—to amplify the impact of our anti-litter and anti-illegal dump campaigns. By pooling resources, expertise, and networks, we'll implement coordinated efforts to address the root causes of environmental degradation and promote a culture of environmental responsibility.
7.         Fun and Meaningful Participation: We're committed to making T2C events enjoyable and meaningful, akin to a family outing. By infusing elements of fun and camaraderie, we aim to create an environment where parents feel encouraged to bring their children along. Engaging families in these activities not only promotes bonding but also instils a sense of responsibility towards the environment from a young age.
8.         Educational Opportunities for Children: T2C events provide valuable educational opportunities for children. By actively involving them in cleanup activities, we empower them to learn about environmental conservation firsthand. We believe that children are the future kaitiakis of our planet, and by nurturing their connection to nature early on, we can inspire a lifelong commitment to environmental stewardship.
Through these strategies, T2C aims to not only clean up our surroundings but also inspire lasting behavioural change and cultivate a collective commitment to safeguarding our environment for generations to come. T2C aims to not only clean up our communities but also foster a sense of joy, purpose, and intergenerational learning that will help shape a brighter future for our environment.

Financial information

Amount requested:

$27772.80

Requesting grant for:

Programme cost which includes Logistics Support, Volunteer Reimbursement and Container Rent which houses the Earth Action Trust cleaning and community engagement resources..We are also requesting funding to purchase a larger van, as our current vanette has become too small to efficiently transport our cleaning and other resources to events across various locations in the Auckland region. Additionally, it no longer has the capacity to transport the rubbish collected from T2C cleaning events.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

If only part of the project can be funded, as this programme is already established and addressing the critical issue of increasing rubbish in our streets, parks, and harbours, we would prioritise securing funding from alternative sources to ensure its continuation. The existing activities are integral to the programme's effectiveness and would not be amended, as they are essential to its operation.

We plan on activating  several local skateparks across Auckland , by promoting skateboarding as a fun way to keep active, meet new people , and master a new skill. We selected these specific skateparks because we have seen first hand over the years the usage decreasing, we want to put on an event and bring back the vibe, with local skaters from within the area also directly involved in the delivery of these activations. We will bring the coaches, equipment and everything required to give skateboarding a go. We will be teaming up with Young Guns Skate School and Girlskate to deliver these

Expertise:

We have delivered over 150x learn to skate drop in sessions  with more than 380 local kids skating with us per week. We operate NZs only indoor facility and have on hand staff , coaches to deliver these initatives. We have worked alongside Sport Auckland, Te Whatu Ora, and Girlguides NZ/ Skids NZ delivering many skate programme, activations and have a go days. We are first aid certified, and have Child Protection policies and Police Vetting policies in place to ensure a safe environment for everyone attending

·     Sports and recreational opportunities respond to the needs of our communities

Physical Activity: Skateboarding requires constant movement, engaging various muscle groups and promoting cardiovascular health. This physical activity helps individuals maintain a healthy weight, improve coordination, and enhance overall fitness levels.
 
Accessible Recreation: Skateboarding is accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds. It doesn't require expensive equipment or memberships, making it an inclusive activity that encourages community participation and engagement.
 
Social Interaction: Skate parks serve as gathering places where people can socialize, share tips, and build friendships. This social aspect fosters a sense of belonging and community cohesion, enhancing mental well-being.
 
Youth Development: Skateboarding provides a positive outlet for youth, promoting discipline, perseverance, and creativity. It offers opportunities for skill development and personal growth, instilling confidence and self-esteem.
Community Spaces: Skate parks often revitalize neglected areas, transforming them into vibrant community spaces. These spaces encourage outdoor recreation and attract visitors, contributing to local economies and neighborhood pride.
Overall, skateboarding promotes physical activity, social interaction, and community development, contributing to healthier and more active communities.

Māori outcomes:

·     Māori focus - tikanga (practices), mātauranga (knowledge), reo (language)

The lessons given by EastSkate are focussed on the hauora of the child, with the
development of not only the physical (tinana)aspects of health and activity but also the
emotional (hinengaro) aspects of health that are derived from activity and inclusive
nature of this sport. Whanau (family) are welcomed into lessons and monthly community
led activations and an integral part of the growth of the child as is the friendships and
strengthened community that takes place from such activities

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Skateboarding is an inclusive sport. We already have neurodiverse children successfully
participating in our lessons, to date. We welcome parents to come along too, to support.

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, Encourage the reduction of carbon emissions or increase community resilience to the impacts of climate change*

Smoke free skating space - no smoking on premises
Waste Minimisation - Venues are run by Auckland Council so will utilise existing waste
management policies
Health Options - Each child to bring their own water for drinking, monthly sausage sizzle
Encourge active lifestyles - by promotion of skateboarding as a fun, inclusive and accessible
sport to take back into sub-communities upon completion of skate lessons
Encourage students to skate to school - reducing carbon emissions

 

 

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

skateboarding transcends gender, age, and ethnicity barriers by providing a welcoming and inclusive environment where individuals from diverse backgrounds can come together, express themselves, and share their passion for the sport.
We will have girls only sessions additional to the ADHD programmes we already host.

 

Financial information

Amount requested:

$18550.00

Requesting grant for:

For the delivery costs of these lesson/activations. This includes, food, drinks, and equipment as well as our professional skate coaches and PA system with free skateboards to give away. 
2650 x 7x events = $18,550
2650 includes 4x hour free lessons for various age groups with a competition at the end, promoting skateparks as a family friendly place to exercise

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

If only a portion is funded, we will have to decrease the amount of skate coaches , which results in less people being able to participate
We hope to deliver these to as many rangatahi as we can as well as the equipment

Cost of participation:

$1 coin donation. In our exerience this reduces the amount of uninterested participants and everyone included is super keen on skating

We are always so thankful and make sure we acknowledge those who support our programme. We send tree delivery cards to the plant supplier and these are included in every order to schools and preschools. This card has the sponsor information on them and thanks them for their support. We also use social media to acknowledge our supporters. With our bin deliveries we make sure that with every bin order we confirm that we acknowledge who has enabled us to send these bins.

 

Environmental benefits:  We are promoting sustainable practices and restoring the native environment.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

There are 780 preschools and schools included in this application for funding. We are actively working with learning communities helping them setup and maintain simple and effective recycling systems. This is diverting tonnes and tonnes of paper and cardboard from the landfill. As a reward for their recycling efforts (and logging their data) we give these preschools and schools free native plants to plant in their learning communities to not only beautify the space but also restore the native environment to what it used to be. The hope is that these sustainable practices will become ingrained in the next generation of New Zealanders and it will be extended from the classroom to their homes as well.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Howick

·     Empower the community to take environmental action

We have 89 learning communities registered in our paper4trees programme in the Howick area. We are helping with the restoration of the natural environment by rewarding these learning communities who actively choose sustainability practices with native plants to plant on their grounds or within their local community. The effects of this can only be positive with not only the beautifying of these spaces but also the regeneration of the environment and encouraging the native wildlife.

Project: Kaiako Hauora Programme South East

Location:

Waipuna Hotel and Conference Centre  58 Waipuna Road, Mount Wellington, Auckland 1060

Summary:

Our programme improves community mental health and well-being - particularly of our kaiako (teachers) and through them our tamariki (young children) - by prioritizing the personal well-being of kaiako and helping them address the mental and emotional health of tamariki. We offer a programme that incorporates workshops and online education - empowering participants to positively impact their workplaces, homes, and wider communities. The programme draws on the frameworks and methodologies of Te Whare Tapa Wha, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and Five Ways to Wellbeing. It also draws on the experience of our Te Tai Tokerau Tamariki Mental Wellbeing Project, which is tackling mental wellbeing by providing an emotional regulation programme to kaiako and tamariki in 60 Northland schools since 2023.

Expertise:

Feelings for Life and Think and Be Me have expertise in delivering similar projects, drawing from their involvement in initiatives like the Rotary Te Tai Tokerau Tamaraiki Mental Wellbeing Project and the Life Education Teacher Training. Through the Te Tai Tokerau Tamaraiki Mental Wellbeing Project, they gained insights into designing and delivering 1 one year teacher training and mental health program for 35 schools in 2023 and 2024 . Their participation in the Life Education Partnership Teacher Training indicates proficiency in developing and hosting over 200 professional development workshops for educators on mental wellbeing. With experience in mental health promotion, program development, teacher training, and community engagement, they are adept at designing and implementing projects aimed at enhancing community well-being.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Our programme aims to significantly impact children's mental health by fostering environments of support and understanding within schools. By prioritizing the mental well-being of children, we seek to create safer and more nurturing spaces where students feel valued and heard. Through planned initiatives focused on promoting emotional intelligence, coping strategies, and resilience-building activities, we aim to empower children to navigate challenges with confidence and self-awareness. Our programme will also focus on helping teachers equip students with essential skills to manage stress, anxiety, and interpersonal relationships effectively.
 
We plan to achieve this by enhancing teacher well-being, thereby indirectly supporting children's mental health. We believe that teachers who experience positive mental health and well-being will be better equipped to provide empathetic and nurturing environments for their students. Through collaborative efforts with local groups and by providing access to digital resources, we aim to ensure that teachers have the necessary tools to improve their mental well-being and to support and model positive mental health to children and communities.
 
In summary, our programme's approach to mental health aims not only to support children's mental health but also to foster supportive school communities where their well-being is a top priority.

Alignment with local board priorities:
