Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Our Vision is to “Enable young people to express their authenticity while growing a vibrant community that supports them”. Working with our priority groups, we use a strength based, equity approach, recognising the innate mana of each individual and community.
Our services provide safe spaces for youth to amplify and articulate their korero. They are a gateway for young people to join the conversation providing leadership tools, connection and platforms for self-advocacy and self-determination. 
This creative and transformative work empowers young people to learn to articulate their thoughts clearly, to stand tall in front of an audience, and to listen deeply to others. Our programmes create a sense of belonging. This sense of connection is vital for wellbeing and resilience.
Our impact goes beyond Spoken Word poetry. Our workshops, programmes and mentoring foster crucial life skills. These are skills that serve young people well in all aspects of life, from education to employment to community leadership.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

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

Our Spoken Word programmes provide safe spaces for diverse communities to come together in solidarity, voice their issues and challenges, and grow their collective resilience. The Spoken Word artform in its essence is a healthy way for community to express themselves allowing community to build protective factors, uplift and enhance their mana, and manifest hope for their future. 
Our organisation works with communities who have significant numbers of marginalised young people who are at higher risk of poor outcomes. Currently this includes Maori, Pasifika, Rainbow, and Muslim young people. The issues that these communities face are xenophobia, racism, discrimination, homophobia, transphobia, mental unwellness, alcohol and substance abuse, bullying, socioeconomic, cultural and education barriers, unemployment, violence and isolation.  
Our programmes provide spaces for these communities to be truly seen, felt, and heard, and allow for authentic conversation and connection.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·     Māori led - either a Māori organisation that is applying or Māori directed (came about as a request from Māori), 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 are an indigenous led organisation who is committed to delivering a rights-based service that recognises, respects, and demonstrates our responsibilities to Te Tiriti O Waitangi. Our commitment to Te Tiriti is reflected in our Trust Deed, Values, Operations and Service Delivery, Approach, Evaluation, and deliberate investment into the rangatahi and whanau that we both represent and serve. For many Māori, Spoken Word  is a form of language and culture revitalisation. Māori youth have gravitated strongly towards Spoken Word  Poetry as it encourages them to engage with their traditional practices and speak to their history, aspirations, triumphs, and challenges. We seek to build mana enhancing relationships within our community, empowering tino rangatiratanga and mana motuhake of rangatahi.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our work is mainly held at secondary schools and community centres which are all well equipped to provide access for those with physical disabilities. Upon entry into our programmes, we take into account the unique needs of each individual so that we can ensure they are comfortable and can fully participate.

Healthy environment approach:

Promote smoke-free messages

We work in a holistic manner taking into consideration Te Whare Tapa Wha physical, mental, whanau, and spiritual wellbeing (which includes relationship to whenua) of the young people. These themes are addressed within the shared space through whakawhiti korero / talanoa.

Project: Ice Hire and Coaching in June & July of 2025

Location:

Paradice Ice Skating - 490 Ti Rakau Drive, Botany, Auckland

Summary:

We are an ice figure skating club based at Paradice Botany. To run a successful club we must hire ice from Paradice (a privately owned venue) for all our training needs. We are asking for funding to help cover ice hire for all our skaters and coaching costs for our synchro skaters in June and July of this year.

Expertise:

Last year our Junior Team qualified for & attended Junior Worlds, the first team from NZ to do this. Additionally, some of our skaters attended competitions in Europe and became the first NZ synchro skaters to achieve medals at an international competition.
One of our singles skaters was the first NZ skater to gain a medal at the Youth Olympics, so 2024 was a good year for us!
This year we have 3 NZIFSA accredited coaches working with our synchro teams, so we are hopeful 2024 will be equally as successful. 
We like to believe the support and ice time we are able to provide, does in some way help our talented skaters achieve their goals.

We will also make mention of the contribution on our website & within our Club Championships competition program.Additionally the Howick Local Board contribution will be specifically mentioned by the announcers at our competition.

 

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Being able to provide on ice training sessions for our teams and our skaters that are subsidized or realistically priced allows our sport to grow. The more skaters we attract, the cheaper our ice sessions become (as we cost everything across the number of skaters on the ice). The ice skating community of East Auckland can only continue to thrive and grow with the help of funding.
The more skaters we have, the more opportunities with are able to offer those skaters. Additionally when our numbers grow, we work hard to offer free sessions in the later part of each year, so those who are keen to try our sport are given the opportunity to do so.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

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

Figure skating is a minority sport in NZ that is often ignored. As there is no community rink in Auckland (both rinks are owned by Paradice) all three Auckland based clubs work hard to provide ice skating opportunities for the wider community at realistic prices. We currently pay $460 per hour to hire ice from Paradice. Funding these sort of costs without help is next to impossible.
We see many skaters who attend the Paradice public sessions or even skate school lessons, who would love to take ice skating further as a sport, but are prevented from doing so by the costs involved. This is where we try to help.
Synchronized ice skating in particular is very popular with young people in the 12-15 age bracket, a group that traditionally struggle to maintain an interest in sport. By constantly looking for funding, AIDC try hard to create teams that are affordable. We have found that many of our skaters refer to the ice rink as their "happy place". Away from the stress of school or trouble at home, the rink provides a team environment that thrives on trust and communication. AIDC are committed to fostering this positive environment and providing teams that allow our skaters to thrive, on and off the ice.

Healthy environment approach:

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

We encourage all skaters to have a full water bottle at the start of all one and off ice sessions
We encourage independent fitness before on ice sessions and encourage all our skaters to be active at other times during the week.
We encourage stretchging on a daily basis as flexibility and strength are a huge part of the skating culture.

 

 

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

We are a fully inclusive sport and encourage skaters from all backgrounds and cultures. 
This year all our skaters are under 30. However each season we respond to the needs of the skaters and in the past we have had skaters much older than this and have formed competitive adult teams
While our skaters are mostly female we do have and encourage male skaters to participate. Our top three teams both include male skaters.

Financial information

Amount requested:

$39974.75

Requesting grant for:

We are requesting funding for TWO months of ice hire and TWO months of associated coaching costs.
Our season runs for 10 months, so we are asking for support with 1/5th of the costs involved with supporting our teams and skaters for the 2025 season.

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

We commit to 10 months of training at the start of each season. Without any funding, we will charge (much) higher monthly fees, cut the amount of practice ice each team has and put a halt to any plans for free introduction sessions for new skaters.

Cost of participation:

Yes. Monthly fees are charged to each skater, depending on frequency of training, team size and funding reaceived.

Additional information to support the application:

Ice skating is a beautiful and passionate sport that struggles to survive in Auckland due to the lack of community facilities.
We hope that the Howick Local Board can see how this impacts our growth and prevents so many from participating at a competitive level. We very much hope you are able to help support us in some way.

Summary:

Bhartiya Samaj Charitable Trust is seeking funding to support the well-being of senior citizens in the Howick Local Board area through culturally inclusive social engagement programs, wellness activities, and community support services. Our initiatives aim to reduce social isolation, promote active aging, and provide a supportive environment for elderly residents, particularly from migrant backgrounds. The funding will help us organize regular community gatherings, educational workshops, and recreational activities tailored to the needs of senior citizens. Through these efforts, we strive to enhance their quality of life and foster a sense of belonging within the local community.

Expertise:

Bhartiya Samaj Charitable Trust has over 29 years of experience in organizing community programs, cultural events, and senior citizen and all age groups support initiatives. We have successfully conducted regular social gatherings, wellness programs, and cultural celebrations across various locations, including Mt. Roskill, Flat Bush, and Papakura. Our team has expertise in planning and executing large-scale community events, collaborating with local organizations, and engaging diverse communities to promote social well-being. With a strong track record of delivering similar projects, we are well-equipped to ensure the successful implementation of events and activities that benefit the Howick Local Board community.

Additionally, we will feature a section in our newsletters and annual reports detailing the impact of their funding. We will invite local board representatives to key events, allowing them to engage with the community and see the positive outcomes of their support, fostering a strong partnership and expressing our gratitude for their contribution.

 

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Our project provides significant community benefits by fostering social inclusion, improving the well-being of senior citizens, and strengthening cultural connections. By organizing regular gatherings, wellness activities, and digital literacy sessions, we help reduce social isolation and promote active participation among elderly residents. These programs enhance their mental and physical health while creating a supportive network where they feel valued and connected.
Additionally, our culturally inclusive events celebrate diversity and encourage intergenerational bonding, bringing together different age groups and backgrounds to share traditions and experiences. By empowering seniors with knowledge, social engagement, and access to resources, our project contributes to a more cohesive, resilient, and inclusive community.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Support activities that bring our diverse communities together

Our project supports the Howick Local Board priority by enhancing the well-being of senior citizens through culturally inclusive programs and social engagement activities. By providing regular community gatherings, wellness workshops, and digital learning sessions, we help reduce social isolation and promote active aging among elderly residents, particularly those from diverse backgrounds. Our initiatives create opportunities for seniors to connect, participate in meaningful activities, and access essential support services, fostering a stronger sense of belonging within the local community. Through these efforts, we contribute to a more inclusive and supportive environment, aligning with the local board’s goal of improving community well-being.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our project/activity is designed to be accessible for people with disabilities by implementing several key measures. We ensure that all event venues are wheelchair accessible and equipped with necessary facilities, such as ramps and accessible restrooms. We also provide clear signage and materials in large print to accommodate individuals with visual impairments. Additionally, we offer support for participants with hearing disabilities by providing sign language interpreters or using assistive listening devices during events when requested. We actively promote an inclusive environment by encouraging feedback from participants with disabilities to continuously improve accessibility and ensure that all community members feel welcome and able to participate fully in our activities.

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

We will promote a healthy environment approach by fostering physical, mental, and social well-being among senior citizens through our programs and activities. Our wellness workshops will encourage active aging by incorporating light physical exercises, yoga, and mindfulness sessions to support mobility and stress management. Additionally, we will provide health awareness sessions on nutrition, disease prevention, and self-care to empower seniors with knowledge for a healthier lifestyle.
To ensure a socially healthy environment, we will create opportunities for seniors to engage in community activities, reducing isolation and promoting emotional well-being. Our digital literacy sessions will also enable them to stay connected with family and access essential online services, further enhancing their mental and social health. By fostering a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere, we will encourage seniors to remain active, engaged, and supported in their community.

 

 

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

Yes, our project specifically supports seniors, with a focus on promoting the well-being of older adults from diverse ethnic backgrounds, including South Asian communities. While our activities are open to all genders and age groups, we prioritize creating an inclusive environment for seniors, as they often face challenges related to social isolation and access to resources. By organizing culturally relevant events and activities, we aim to address the unique needs of these communities and foster connections among individuals of various backgrounds, thereby enhancing the overall well-being of our participants.

Requesting grant for:

Venue Hire 11 Seniors Meeting, Koha to Volunteers, Events Celebration/ Decoration, VVideo and Photography at the events, Transport (bus hire for outings), Sound Hire for the events and Counselling (Elder Abuse).

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

If only part of our project can be funded, we would prioritize the most critical activities and services that have the greatest impact on senior citizens’ well-being. This may involve scaling back on the number of community gatherings or wellness workshops while ensuring that the remaining programs are well-resourced and effectively delivered.
We would also explore alternative funding sources, partnerships, or community contributions to supplement the budget and maintain essential services. Additionally, we might adjust the project timeline to extend the duration of activities or spread them over a longer period, allowing us to implement key components gradually. By remaining flexible and adaptive, we can ensure that the core objectives of enhancing the well-being of seniors are still met, even with limited funding.

Summary:

Mentoring for Howick boys who do not have a father in their lives. We will match boys (7-14) with good men willing to volunteer their time to help guide the boys into adulthood, leading by example and showing them what it means to be a good man. Currently we have 2 Flatbush boys and one Pakuranga boy matched or waiting.

Expertise:

We have been matching boys since 1996 and we have matched almost 1200 boys without any safety concerns. Our gold-standard screening programme ensures each volunteer can provide what each individual boy needs. 865 of our matches have lasted more than a year; 523 more than 3 years and 350 for 5 years or more.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The Big Buddy Mentoring Programme envisions a community in which every boy experiences a nurturing one-to-one relationship with at least one adult male, which in turn allows each of them to develop into their full adult potential; capable of making informed,
responsible decisions as involved members of our community.
Without a father figure a boy will grow up searching for what it means to be a man, some are lucky and find it, others won’t and the rest of us will feel the consequences - that is boys growing into angry, sad or just plain bad men, inflicting their dysfunction on the world through crime, violence and suicide. Statistics show that about 80 per cent of men in prison in New Zealand had no functional father when growing up or no relationship with their father. Boys who grow up without a father figure can flounder a bit. They need good men in their lives to reference themselves against.
Every boy needs a father figure - a role model - and our goal is to find them one by recruiting, screening and training male volunteers towards becoming the father figures these boys need. In the process we build a better world.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

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

Boys with a Big Buddy in their lives are more confident, because they feel more secure. They become more resilient and are willing to try new things. Their caregivers regularly report improved behavior, 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.
Research shows that boys fall through the cracks more than girls when you look at achievement. And there is a lack of male teachers in schools, not having positive male role models at school, at home and in other settings all contribute to boys not being seen and not being valued.
Many boys express deep gratitude for the opportunity to have a Big Buddy, but also some have a harder shell, and it can take time and patience to break through external defenses and get them to open up. Ultimately these are some of the issues of why our male youth suicide rates are so alarmingly high in New Zealand.

23% of the boys we support identify as Màori. 7% of the men who volunteer as mentors identify as Màori

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our Mentor Managers spend time with the boys and their caregivers so they can understand what he needs in a Big Buddy mentor. The manager then carefully selects a potential mentor and supports the match through the early stages. If a boys has special needs or physical limitations, this is taken into account during the volunteer selection process.

Healthy environment approach:

Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

We encourage our big Buddies to take the boys out and spend time together walking the dog, fishing or mowing the lawn. Shared activities strengthen the bond.

Activity focus:

Community

Project: Essential Expenses: Caring for Howick-rohe bird casualties at BirdCare Aotearoa

Location:

74 Avonleigh Road, Green Bay, Auckland 0604

Summary:

BirdCare Aotearoa is Auckland's main Dept of Conservation-permitted wild bird hospital. Although located in Green Bay, we serve concerned Aucklanders across our city, by providing expert clinical rehabilitation services to their sick, injured, or orphaned wild bird rescues. We typically admit ~6000 bird patients per year, with ~5% from the Howick catchment. Here, we seek support from the Howick local board to assist with 5% of our hospital's annual operational expenses ($127,800: e.g., patient feed, medicine, disposable PPE, utilities, and broad spectrum microbial disinfectant costs). Our charitable organisation earnestly seeks a grant-in-aid of $6390 from the Howick Local Board to sustain the continued provision of bird-caring services to the nature-loving communities of Tāmaki Makaurau.

Expertise:

Our new General Manager, previously the avian-team leader at Auckland Zoo, has a 15+ year track record of expertise in animal welfare and conservation leadership. Our clinical team are recognised for delivering excellent and compassionate clinical welfare outcomes, serving Auckland for many years- especially after 'Bird lady' Sylvia Durrant closed her Rothesay Bay rescue. We are world leaders in responding to botulism-impacted birds, including training other national agencies/field teams to manage these wildlife emergencies. Our Clinical Advisor, Dr. Miller (WildWays NZ, and former GM) is NZ's only Certified Wildlife Responder, with additional veterinary oversight by Dr. Berend Westera. Dr. Parker has a history of managing and delivery of project grants for academia and NGOs.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Our community-based organisation's hospital operations benefits Aucklanders- including residents of the Howick local board, through inclusive and accessible services/opportunities, centred on the clinical recovery of sick, injured, or orphaned wild birds. We pride ourselves in compassionate clinical expertise and research, to improve  Animal Welfare, Biosecurity, and Conservation outcomes for the region's birdlife. Further, we are renowned for Developing community capability (e.g., training for rangatahi veterinary interns, work experience, language skills for new arrivals, and social capital-enhancing opportunities for the Dept of Corrections: 120 volunteers per year). Further, through Research, Education and advocacy, we enhance community awareness on risk factors affecting the health of taonga populations. We collaborate regularly with local community-based operations that focus on the environment, to elevate conservation outcomes for regional birdlife. 
 
Our community-based operation enables all rescuers to feel engaged, included, and collaboratively participate in programmes to have a positive effect on nga manu (wild birds) and Te Taiao (nature). Like mana whenua, the many cultures residing in your rohe see wild birds as an indicator of healthy ecosystems, and value their connections to Te Taiao to support their hinengaro and hauora (mental health and wellbeing).

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Protect our natural environment

Thank you for the Howick Local Board Priority to Protect our Natural Environment! Our bird hospital's kaupapa strongly aligns with this Te Taiao-focussed priority of the Howick Local board. Our mahi primarily serves Aucklanders through paramedic services, providing residents with Dept of Conservation-permitted, and compassionate expertise to entrust with their wild bird rescues and environmental concerns. 5% of our intake is from the Howick local board- with each bird representing the concerns of its rescuer (diverse community kaitiaki: young families to retirees, students and the unemployed to corporates, wanderers to explorers). We are in full support of your 2023 Local Board Plan document, to "protect our natural environment to ensure the world we pass on to
future generations has been well looked after and nourished." Indeed, we work to rehabilitate avian casualties, rescued by your resident heroes. These rescues originate from your rohe's wonderful coastlines (sea and shorebirds), parks, mangroves, established suburbs, and growing housing developments. Through clinical rehabilitation of these bird casualties, we help to restore birdlife to your neighborhoods, and mitigate the environmental impacts of urban sprawl (malnourished from poor access to native habitats), growing infrastructure (window and car collisions), domestic pet attacks, recreational accidents (fishing hook injuries, boating amputations common for shags), and polluted waterways (shore and seabirds with plastic ingestion oil slick-covered birds rescued near the marina). Here, we seek a funding contribution towards 5% of our opex, as described in this application; your support will enable us  to sustain the facilities that are essential to our clinical service delivery. Importantly, as plant pollinators, seed disperses, nutrient cyclers, and natural pest controllers, the return of these manu to their kainga (home territories) supports climate action goals for your local board.
 
 
Our hospital records indicate a mixture of indigenous and introduced species admissions from your local board. Please note, very recently (activated from 19th Feb 2025), BirdCare Aotearoa will focus our efforts on the clinical rehabilitation of native and endemic species (currently ~30-40% of our intake are indigenous species). This will ensure excellent services will continue to the korora penguins, kereru, piwakawaka, tui, Titi Cook's Petrels, Huttons Shearwater, and other manu tai (sea birds) we receive from your rohe. This conservation focus will also enable us to grow our collaborative efforts with your local community groups and mana whenua, to really elevate regional health outcomes for birdlife. The budget described herein was calculated based on our current operations (all wild birds), but many of the expenses described herein are fixed costs (utilities, medication, PPE, disinfectant needs etc), while the feed costs are expected to decrease with this revised strategic focus. 
 
Finally, agreeing with your community-oriented priorities, are delighted to engage with your libraries and NGO groups, to present workshops and seminars to residents on ways we can all work to improve habitats for birdlife in the region.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

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

BirdCare Aotearoa are committed to honouring the rich history, mātauranga (knowledge) and kaitiakitanga (guardianship) of tangata whenua. We are located within the heartland of Te Kawerau ā Maki. However, as our mahi (work) covers
manu across Tāmaki Makaurau, we hope to strengthen relationships with all 19 iwi authorities- including Ngai Tai ki Tāmaki. We would be delighted if the Howick local board can assist with the whakawhanaungatanga with your mana whenua. Our mahi is renowned for manaakitanga (compassion), and caring for Papatūānuku, Ranginui, and their children Tāne Mahuta. Therefore, our works complement tikanga-based approaches that recognise the wairua and mauri of te taiao (the spirit and life force in all elements of nature).

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - This project is accessible for people of all abilities. We are committed to ensuring that our mahi is inclusive, and will consult/ work with any concerned individuals to support their participation. Indeed, our whanau volunteers and kaimahi includes people who self identify with a diverse range of physical, social and neurodiversity spectra- and have been commended for creating a safe space for all to come together to help wild birds in need.

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: BirdCare Aotearoa is a 100% smoke-free site, as needed for the welfare of birds and team members. Smokers are asked to exit the premises, for smoking activities away from the site. 
*Waste minimisation: We promote food waste-composting, recycling, and separate soft-plastic waste to return to dedicated facilities. The fruits and vegetables for liquid feeds are prepared from items that are deemed not acceptable for supermarket sales. However, once patients have recovered sufficiently and return to solid feed, they can be very picky of the quality of fruits and vegetables! Finally, we regularly reuse materials beyond their primary utility.
*Healthy dietary options: Beyond this project, BirdCare Aotearoa provides healthy/sustainable snacks & drink options for whanau breaks in the tearoom.
*Encouraging active lifestyles: 98% of our avian patients are brought in by members of the community, describing their discovery of the patients while spending time in active pursuits outdoors (e.g., walking, hiking, cycling, gardening). Further, as the rehabilitation mahi requires our whanau to walk between wild bird aviaries in our expansive outdoor premises, we encourage active lifestyles within their occupation. 
*Encourage the reduction of carbon emissions or increase community resilience to the impacts of climate change: While our avian patients typically arrive by car, we reduce subsequent carbon emissions where possible, by coordinating post-rehabilitation soft
releases onsite, within our expansive outdoor habitat areas (e.g., rakau/ native plant areas vs shoreline). Note, for territorial species or those requiring specialist release conditions (e.g., Cook's petrels need elevation and windy environments to take flight), the post-rehabilitation release involves driving a few birds at a time- thereby reducing carbon emissions, with all mileage recorded. Further, as many of the wild bird species we attend to have established ecological niches in seed dispersal and pollination, their successful rehabilitation and release extensively contributes to the growth of carbon-sequestering plant species.
On the other hand, the arrival of many infectious pathogens from remote global sites reflects the impacts of climate change. The containment/ isolation practises detailed herein will improve our facilities, empowering BCA to significantly mitigate future disease
spread through our wider community, and throughout Tamaki Makaurau, and nationally.
Importantly, we can minimise the spread of infectious agents to taonga endemic and native birds, and agricultural industries that are essential to Aotearoa's emotional, social, and economic ora (welfare).

 

 

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

This project supports the inclusion of all genders, ages, and ethnicities of Tāmaki Makaurau. Indeed, our community of kaimahi (staff), mahi aroha (volunteers), and supporters reflect the diverse peoples of Howick rohe, and wider Tāmaki Makaurau. Notably, we see greater female participation (of staff, volunteers, and supporter community, 79%). We also have ~10% identifying as gender diverse, which is greater than the 0.5% identified across Aotearoa in the 2021 Stats NZ Household Economic Survey.
We note however, that the provision of PPE and disinfectants as described in this application are of particular
benefit to individuals in our community with immune deficiencies and retirees, thereby reducing their risk of acquiring direct or indirect infections through BirdCare Aotearoa's mahi. 
We do not collect demographic data from our supporters or members of the public who bring in birds, but these often include retired citizens, or families with very young children.

Financial information

Amount requested:

$6390.00

Requesting grant for:

The total cost of operational expenses (budget summary attached) for our hospital is $127800 per annum. We seek a 5% contribution  from the Howick Local Board, reflecting the caseloads rescued from your rohe. On their recovery, these patients are returned to the neighborhoods they were rescued from.

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

BirdCare Aotearoa is a charity, funded by grants, donations, and very limited Auckland Council funding. We receive no tax payer/ governmental support. We are in a precarious financial position. While, as animal lovers, we have every intention to maintain these services to wild birds and the wider community, a lack of funding will slow down the operation.

Cost of participation:

There is no cost for bird rescues- to ensure equitable access to animal welfare services. However, a voluntary donation is gratefully accepted from the public should they be able to do so.

Our initiative is to hold a day of structured programmes, including an employment forum, industry insights from local employers, bridging skills training, and business booths from local businesses where students can explore career opportunities. This initiative aligns with the Local Board's focus on growing the local economy, fostering community engagement and providing meaningful pathways for students into the workforce by connecting them with local businesses.

Expertise:

By combining the expertise of the Business Chamber and Business East Tamaki, we can maximise our networks for greater impact. The Business Chamber has a strong track record of delivering national projects that connect schools, training organisations and employers. Their ED&EM team have experience running expos, employability workshops, site visits to various businesses and organised other engagement events that have resulted in more student engagement with employers, sometimes gaining apprenticeships or jobs. Business East Tamaki brings extensive experience in facilitating events of all sizes and has access to over 2100 businesses in the East Tamaki business area. This collaboration allows us to pool resources, leverage our combined networks, and deliver a more credible, effective and targeted initiative.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

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

Our project is committed to fostering strong relationships with Māori and ensuring Māori culture, language, and values are meaningfully incorporated. We recognize the importance of Te Tiriti o Waitangi principles—Partnership, Protection, and Participation—and aim to reflect these in our approach. 
 
Additionally, we will encourage participation from Māori businesses and entrepreneurs, as well as from other ethnic minority groups, by creating inclusive opportunities for networking, collaboration, and recognition. This could include highlighting Māori-led initiatives, showcasing Māori success stories, and ensuring our project is accessible and welcoming to all.
 
Through these efforts, we aim to create a project that not only acknowledges but actively supports and uplifts Māori culture and participation.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - The event space is on the ground level with easy access and car park directly outside. If access is required for the first floor, there is access for accessible or 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, Encourage the reduction of carbon emissions or increase community resilience to the impacts of climate change*

Our project will champion a healthy environment approach by promoting key initiatives that foster wellness and sustainability. Through strategic partnerships and communications, we will disseminate the appropriate messages around waste minimisation, and by providing healthy food and drink options. Additionally, we are committed to reducing carbon emissions by encouraging carpooling options where possible as we embed these principles into our event to impact participant's health and the environment positively. And to the bigger picture, by achieving local employment for local youth, we can reduce our carbon emissions through reduced commuting distances for employees.

Financial information

Amount requested:

$9865.00

Requesting grant for:

We are requesting assistance with funding for venue and AV hire, assistance with transport from to and from schools, and a provision for funding a professional and expert speaker in the AI and technology space.

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

A shortfall in funding would mean amending the programme and/ or reducing the event's capacity—such as eliminating a keynote speaker, shortening its duration, or cutting transportation services. This would compromise its overall effectiveness and desired outcomes. To ensure success, it's essential to provide incentives that encourage full participation from East Auckland schools and maximize business representation. Adequate funding is crucial to maintain these elements, ensuring the event's impact aligns with the Howick Local Board's priorities of fostering youth engagement and bolstering local business resilience

Cost of participation:

So as to not be a deterrent to participation, we recommend that this is a complimentary/no cost event for both students or employers

Project: Make Moments Art Workshops for Isolated Older People

Location:

All Saint's Anglican Church, 30 Cook St, Howick

Summary:

We are seeking funds to support access to arts for older people and people living with dementia and disability in the Howick area. We would like to facilitate 40 high-quality art workshops for seniors in Howick to support creative ageing and inclusion.

Expertise:

Make Moments has been facilitated across Auckland for over 10 years, reaching an average of 3000 per year. We continue to offer Outreach to groups to ensure every older person has access to the arts for improved wellbeing and intellectual stimulation. We are experienced in working with people living with dementia and encourage mental and social connectivity through dignified and meaningful activity in community spaces, we are uniquely placed to help combat the major challenges facing older people. 
 
In 2019, Andrea Gaskin (Director of Connect the Dots) received a fellowship to explore developments in arts access for people living with dementia through research in the UK to enhance the impact of Make Moments in Aotearoa (findings here: https://www.communitymatters.govt.nz/assets/2020-Winston-Churchill-Memorial-Trust-Fellowship-report/Andrea-Gaskin-Fellowship-Report.pdf.)

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Our participants often experience barriers to participation due to physical disabilities, neurological conditions, age-related vulnerabilities, and social isolation. This is significant, because while service delivery / support agencies in the age-care and disabilities sector provides outstanding services to our target audience, the primary mandate is to provide wellbeing outcomes through clinical or “health-oriented” interventions. 
Through research, observation, and anecdotal evidence, being mentally engaged is critical to mitigating early symptoms of dementia. Creativity is also an effective tool in maintaining mental clarity and agility in older adults. 
Our project provides:
• Improved mental health • Manaakitanga – access to the essentials of a good life, with the ability to fulfil their
potential, in a space that focuses on strengths and opportunity
• Kotahitanga - Increased feeling of social connectedness and reduced feelings of
loneliness
• Improved interests in the arts
• Whanaungatanga - connectedness to other people and a feeling of belonging
particularly in the local arts and cultural spaces we run our programmes in
• Improvement in self-perception and confidence (specifically around creativity)
• Improved wellbeing, both mental, emotional and physical Improved sense of
belonging

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Support activities that bring our diverse communities together

Our older population is growing disproportionately to other ages in Auckland, and is as diverse and multicultural as any group. Art is natural leveller and our workshops always focus on the many perspectives of different people and cultures towards the same subject matter. We bring people together around a shared purpose and activity, encouraging of experimentation and joy, rather that art instruction. We have been invited to support the arts access and wellbeing needs of the Howick seniors and would love the opportunity to bring Make Moments to the community.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·     Māori involvement in the design/concept, Māori focus - tikanga (practices), mātauranga (knowledge), reo (language)

Our Māori, Pasefika and Cantonese-speaking Artist Educators reviewed our
arts programme content and delivery to ensure it is inclusive and reflective of
our diverse communities. Our educators and community also translated our
online and printed art packs in Samoan, Tongan, Mandarin and Cantonese
and these were well received by our participants during lock down. Our
content and examples and arts processes always include works by our Māori,
Pasefika artists as examples for our themes (home, family etc) to ensure that
all participants feel included and valued. Our programmes always include food
and refreshments (Manaakitanga is expressing kindness and respect for
others, emphasising responsibility and reciprocity).

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - As outlined in our mission, and our vision, Connect the Dots strives to engage, through creativity, those who experience physical or intellectual disabilities. Our project is accessible in terms of the physical space we use, we make it appropriate for those with physical or accessibility needs.
 
Our educators are experienced in working with people with intellectual disabilities, and our art workshops are process based, meaning no previous art making skills are required, therefore we adapt wherever we need to for participants physical / intellectual needs to be met.

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*

We encourage healthy food options and encourage our participants to move about in the workshops, gathering their materials and being active with some of the more physical processes like printmaking. We also demonstrate careful use of art materials encouraging zero waste of supplies and by reusing yoghurt containers for water containers etc and not washing anything into the waterways. We travel to workshops with an Electric Vehicle or E Bike to ensure our regional programme is not harming the environment.

 

 

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

We specifically support those over 65 years of age, but do not specifically target gender or ethnicity groups, but of course all genders and ethnicities are welcome and encouraged to participate in our workshops.

Project: Digital Seniors Hubs in Howick Local Board area

Location:

Howick Local Board area

Summary:

Work with libraries and community places to set up Digital Seniors hubs
Recruit local volunteers to provide one on one digital coaching support to older adults
Connect with local organisations providing support to older adults to provide a network of wraparound support for seniors if we find someone who needs referring.
Seniors are empowered, confident and resilient and are able to engage with technology to achieve everyday tasks and are better able to avoid scams.

Expertise:

Digital Seniors has 9 successful hubs on Auckland's North Shore and we have one hub in St. Heliers and are soon to open another in Remuera. We would like to open two more hubs in the Howick Local Board area to meet the needs of the seniors in your area. We also have hubs in Wairarapa and Kāpiti and last November, delivered New Zealand's first tech expo for seniors at Eventfinda Stadium.

Identified community outcomes:

 

Improved social connection for seniorsReduced numbers of succesful scamsSeniors are included and empowered with technology to be able to take control of their own everyday activitiesSeniors are able to engage with Council feedback onlineSeniors who are isolated or otherwise needing assistance are referred to other local support servicesVolunteers are sourced from the local community and are engaged and connected with other volunteers. Several of our volunteers are new migrants or recently retired people and volunteering with Digital Seniors provides them with social connections and feelings of wellbeing.We aim for our volunteer coaches to reflect the diverse local community population. We work closely with Libraries and Community places to collaborate on programming so for instance, with the upcoming 3G shutdown, the library might put on a workshop on how to check if your phone will survive the shutdown and then refer seniors to Digital Seniors for support in transferring their various apps and accounts over to their new phones. Community networks and collaboration opportunities are strenghtened

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Support activities that bring our diverse communities together

Digital Seniors hubs are delivered by diverse local volunteers who are trained and police vetted. On the North Shore, we have a very diverse group of volunteers ranging from Pakeha retirees to middle aged new migrants and students on working holiday visas. As well as English, our coaches speak Mandarin, Cantonese, Korean and a variety of other Asian, middle East and Indian lanugages. These volunteers come together to provide support for older adults and often work out ways to make use of each others skills to provide the best outcomes for seniors. We run social activities for the volunteers to connect outside of the hubs too. We also have a network of providers who we can reach out to if a senior needs extra support. This might be legal advice from the CAB or knowing where to go for dementia support or, as was recently the case, being connected to Asian Family Services as an isolated senior new migrant. The seniors who visit our hubs are able to engage with technology to perform everyday tasks such as booking tickets to a show; paying a bill or communicating with friends and family overseas. Seniors are not restricted on how many times they can attend. One regular at our North Shore hubs has learnt how to use zoom and Google Drive in order to learn te reo Māori. Another senior learnt how to send photos and emails to her local councillor in order to receive support for flood damage. We see people leave our hubs looking taller and more confident. It really does make a difference!

In November 2024, we delivered New Zealand's first tech expo for seniors at Eventfinda Stadium. We had around 1500 senior visitors. You can view a video of the day here:  https://fb.watch/xSj-uxp7Ry/  The aim of this event was to disrupt the concept that seniors are unable to use technology and to work more quickly towards an Auckland that empowers seniors with technology as they age. The event was delivered through collective action with support of volunteers, a senior codesign group and many organisations. We delivered this event in 9 months with 1 full time staff member and 2 part time staff.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Outcome One:
--------------------
Increased participation in recreational sport, for tamariki and rangatahi in Howick, with
skateboarding being voiced by the community as a popular option. Skateboarding offers
an alternative to competitive sport for those that are unable to access it, as well as those
wishing to develop a non-competitive sport. This is in response to recent trends in Sport
Auckland that there is an emerging downward trend in belonging to a team or club, with
most weekly participation being for children in non-competitive sports and activities. As
such East Skate serves this large population of children that identify with this sporting
preference, within the Howick community which has been precipitated with COVID 19.

Summary:

As part of the Making Headway Pathway that we provide for all people affected with brain injury, our Navigators undertake a range of Community Capacity building workshops for community groups and organisations. We are seeking funding to provide for the delivery of at least 10 Capacity Building workshops in the Howick Local Board area over a 12-month period. Each workshop costs $324.50 to run and we offer this service free to community groups to empower them with the capacity, skills and knowledge that will enable them to deliver services that promote inclusivity and are Headway- endorsed so that they can provide activities that support people living with brain injury with the aim to create thriving, connected communities for all.

Expertise:

·     Build community resilience

The Headway team deliver capacity building workshops and sessions to community organisations to ensure that they are Headway endorsed.
In order for people with brain injuries to engage in their community, community groups must be equipped with the capacity, skills, and knowledge to welcome and support them. Our workshops foster understanding, reduce stigma and provide practical strategies to enable meaningful participation. 
We know that a healthy, connected community is one where everyone, regardless of age, ability or disability, is empowered to participate in their community and share their skills, time and knowledge. 
We offer this training opportunity free to community groups to empower them with the capacity, skills and knowledge that will enable them to deliver services that promote inclusivity, diversity and resilience. They will become Headway- endorsed so that they can provide activities that support people living with brain injury with the aim to create inclusive, thriving, connected communities for all.

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

We will provide as many Community Capacity building workshops as we can. If partially funded, then we will provide fewer workshops or find a way to incorporate combined workshops to more than one organisation or community group in a session. This is not ideal, as we will not be able to customise the needs as easily.

Our facilities and courts are well used by our 2,500 + playing members as well as other community groups and clubs i.e. regular yoga, tai chi and martial arts, power hooping, prize giving’s, fundraisers functions and meetings. We are part of and affiliated to Netball Northern Zone as well as affiliated to Netball New Zealand. The primary purpose of Howick Pakuranga Netball Centre is to encourage active participation in the game of netball for our community. Our programmes and activities in the local and wider areas will continue to cater for all levels and aspects of the game. Our centre has a large group of committed volunteers who ensure our netball activities are well run. Our Executive comprises of seven positions, and we are supported by sub committees such as our Games, Coaches, Umpires and Representatives. There are so many positives for young people and adults to participate in sport, including netball. It creates a sense of belonging and builds friendships, while growing valuable skills such as teamwork and sportsmanship. These skills transpose into all aspects of life. Additional benefits include being active and healthy, both in a physical sense and in improved mental health.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Provide facilities and activities across our parks network to suit people of diverse demographics and abilities

The HPNC facilitiy is avaliable to hire to all community groups at extremely great rates. We try our best to keep costs to do this at an acceptable rate. It is extremely hard for community groups to source venues to hire within their budgets. We are happy to work with all commmunity groups to enable them to also have a venue that fits their needs. 
We aim to ensure that the facility is fit for purpose for those groups within the community that do use it. 
We pride ourselves on supporting the people in our community in a safe environment and offering affordable options.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Support building resilience initiatives for local business

HVA has a surveillance network within the Village and this is linked directly to the NZ Police. Incidents in the Village (ram raids, vandalism, burglaries) have highlighted the necessity to keep our CCTV system up to date to ensure our businesses and visitors a sense of safety and security and also assist Police with incident enquiries with a view to successful prosecutions. The urgent replacement of the CCTV equipment that has reached end of life status is critical as these cameras are vital to continue the uninterrupted surveillance in the Village to act as a deterrent for potential offending.

Project: Project Launch Pad 11

Location:

Secondary Schools within the Howick area.  Schools will not be approached until funding has been agreed

Summary:

iSpeak is seeking funding to run speaking skills workshops for senior high school students at schools within the Howick area.  Two facilitators will run 6 four-hour workshops with 20 students in each workshop. We aim to reach 110-120 rangatahi.  We call our Project "Launch Pad" as the course is a launch for participants into their future

Expertise:

From a start up charity in January 2021 with now history to 12 February 2025 we have delivered courses to 773 Ranagatahi.  90% of course participants said they would recommend this course to others.  Feedback from teachers and staff has been positive.  We know what we are doing grows the confidence of participants.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Breadth of Impact: speaking skills for employment, relating to others, social development and wellbeing.  The impact for the individual and their community is much wider than being able to make a speech. It is about nurturing the growth of interpersonal communication. 
Amanda Denston, in a 2021 report for the MoE, states that “listening and speaking skills” support the development of “key competencies, psychosocial development, and wellbeing.” She goes on to say these skills help ākonga develop the “ability to resolve conflict, negotiate, and relate to others”.
 Access to devices and changes in learning environments has impacted rangatahi’s communication confidence. Many feel uncomfortable talking face-to-face, a vital interpersonal communication skill.  Through our speaking skills workshops rangatahi find their own voice. They practice sharing their ideas and hearing others respond. iSpeak supports rangatahi to speak out and discover their messages are valued. Speaking skills grow both these strengths. These skills can be taught, and last for life. iSpeak helps bridge rangatahi from school to work and onward into community leadership.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

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

iSpeak’s mission is to ensure that no young person in New Zealand misses out on an opportunity or experience due to lack of Confidence or Self Belief.
To do this iSpeak inspires New Zealand youth to develop their speaking skills.  Being able to speak out knowing that they, and their message, is valued increases self-confidence and self-belief.   We take them on an adventure to find their own voice.  iSpeak's work fits exactly Howick Local Board's above priority

Yes - The schools we work in all have accessibility for students with disabilities

Healthy environment approach:

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

Our courses have no impact on the environment.None of our facilitators are smokers.  We always ensure there is water available for students and encourage them to use their own drink bottles rather than disposable cups.  If the school is going to provide food during the break we encourage them to provide healthy options including fruit.  We do not give out paper handouts. 
 
 We encourage facilitators to carpool when running courses.

 

 

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

Our courses are generally run for year 12 and 13 students.  There is no discrimination as what students can attend.  The school normally selects students or seeks participants.  Our facilitators have a diverse cultural and work background, they are very competent with working with course participants from differing cultural and ethnic backgrounds.

Project: Dressed in Confidence

Location:

318 Ti Rakau Drive, Burswood, Auckland

Summary:

We will be running a community-led development programme of Dressed in Confidence workshops.
Our Dressed in Confidence programme is a confidence building, wellbeing programme that uses fashion as the driver.
This will be run in 3x different schools in the Howick area and the funding will go towards paying for venues, supplies, equipment, admin, personnel, travel, catering, marketing etc.

Expertise:

Our organisation has run programmes and projects similar to this one countless times. Over almost 9 years since it's creation, the Dressed in Confidence programme has run well over 100+ Dressed in Confidence programmes. All of which have been successful which can be seen through the evaluation and feedback forms we have had participants write. Our facilitators are all trained and undertake regular refreshers, skill development and police vetting to make sure they're fit to enter the different environments our programmes are run in.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Dressed in Confidence, our confidence-building wellbeing programme can bring many benefits to the community. It helps individuals develop self-belief, resilience, and a positive mindset, which are important in creative industries that can be challenging and competitive. By providing a safe and supportive space, the programme encourages connection, collaboration, and peer support, reducing isolation and fostering a sense of belonging. It also promotes mental and emotional wellbeing by helping participants manage stress, self-doubt, and burnout. Through workshops and activities, participants can gain practical skills to build confidence in their work, communicate effectively, and pursue opportunities. The programme supports diversity and inclusivity, ensuring that all creatives, regardless of background, feel valued and empowered. By strengthening individuals, it also helps grow a thriving creative community, contributing to cultural expression, economic opportunities, and overall community wellbeing.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

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

The Dressed in Confidence programme can empower young people to express themselves, build confidence, and engage with their community in meaningful ways. Fashion provides a creative outlet for students to showcase their identity, culture, and individuality, helping them develop self-assurance and a sense of belonging. Through activities like designing, styling, and presenting their work, students gain valuable skills in communication, teamwork, and problem-solving, which strengthen their confidence in everyday life. The programme also fosters an inclusive environment where every voice is heard, encouraging students to share their ideas, experiences, and personal stories through fashion. Feeling valued comes from being in a supportive space that celebrates individuality, where students' efforts are recognised by their peers, teachers, and the wider community. This experience nurtures a strong sense of purpose and belonging, inspiring young people to actively shape their future and positively impact their communities.
Our Dressed in Confidence workshops create spaces where creativity, identity, and self-expression are nurtured and celebrated.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - We have had people with disabilities take part in our programme in the past and have always looked to adapt our programme to make it more accessible for the participants. Getting a brief and meeting with the participant and/or their carer beforehand to make sure all possible ways we can make the programme more accessible is of utmost importance.

Healthy environment approach:

Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice

We promote a healthy environment approach in our project by the following:
When we provide catering instead of having pizza parties which most schools do when they're treating the students we provide them with healthier food options. We always have water available, on occasion we have juice but it usually much less than the ammount of water given. We also provide sandwiches with vegetarian options, fruit, muesli bars etc.
We also promote waste minimisation through our programme with our promotion of sustainable fashion.
Fashion is one of the leading contributors to waste at landfills worldwide. Because fashion is the driver of this programme we teach the kids how to find their personal style and the beauty of op-shopping or thriftshopping at second hand clothing stores like Salvation Army and SaveMart etc. For the graduation we have the kids do a runway show in front of their parents, teachers and their friends. In this fashion show they will wear their DIC tshirt and the rest of their outfit will be completely bought from second hand clothing stores. On our 5th session we take them on an off-site trip to the closest SaveMart to their school and they get about 2 hours to pick bottoms, accessories and sho9es within a $20 budget. This teaches them that they don't need to shop at the typical stores like Cotton On, Glassons or Hallensteins in order to get an outfit that looks great and suits their personal style.

 

 

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

Our organisation has always supported all genders, ages and ethnicities. The only times we've had restrictions on who can participate in the past was when our funding was tagged, ie. for Pasifika and Maori.
Because we will be running these 3x programmes in schools that means our demographic will be between 7-18 years old.

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

If only part of our project can be funded we would amend the project plan to suit. Based on the $10,000.00 requested funding ammount this can fund 3x 7 week DIC in Schools programmes. If we were to receive around 1/3 of the requested ammount that would fully fund 1x school programme. If we received around 2/3 of the requested ammount it would fund 2x school programmes.

Cost of participation:

No, this programme would be free and there would be no cost for the school and students involved to take part in the programme.

Healthy environment approach:

This project promotes waste minimization by focusing on plant-based recipes that emphasize the use of whole foods, reducing reliance on processed ingredients and packaging. We also highlight sustainable practices, such as proper food storage technique to minimize food waste. By choosing local and seasonal ingredients, we further reduce the carbon footprint associated with food transportation and packaging waste. 
In term of healthy food options, the classes teach participants how to prepare nutritious, plant based meals that are rich in vitamins, minerals and fiber while being lower in saturated fats and processed sugars. By offering alternative, vegan recipes, the workshops encourange healthier eating habits and give particpants tools to make more informed, health-conscious food choices.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

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

Supporting Family, Whānau, and Social Wellbeing are at the heart of our programmes is a commitment to family, whānau, and social wellbeing. Through Life Education Trust’s Healthy Harold programme, we create safe, inclusive learning environments in primary and intermediate schools, where tamariki and rangatahi can explore important topics without pressure or prejudice. Our approach fosters open discussions and active learning, with feedback showing strong knowledge retention in this supportive setting.
Delivered in both English and Te Reo, each student receives a take-home pack or workbook to extend their learning beyond the classroom. These resources encourage family and whānau discussions, reinforcing key messages about health and wellbeing.
 
Our programmes equip young people with essential life skills, helping them build self-esteem, self-worth, and strong values. By fostering confidence and resilience, we empower them to pursue personal, career, and community goals, shaping them into the future leaders of their communities.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

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

This grant will benefit youth in the community now and throughout their lives. Using the "te whare tapa wha" framework, recognized as best practice by the NZ Council for Educational Research, our Specialist Teachers collaborate with local educators to create tailored health and wellbeing programmes. Our philosophy, "Everybody is unique, everybody is magnificent, every person deserves respect," emphasizes identity, individuality, and cultural respect. Our programmes consistently support youth development, helping them achieve personal, career, and community goals. Engaging tamariki and rangatahi sparks long-term advocacy for the lessons learned through Life Education. Over the past 30 years, many have become community leaders.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - We are proud to be invited into many schools, including those with students who have learning and physical disabilities. To ensure every child is included, we provide sensory-appropriate resources, such as Braille workbooks, and maintain an accessible learning environment. Our mobile classrooms are equipped with a wheelchair ramp and lift, allowing all students to participate together in a safe and inclusive space

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*

In our educational programme, we focus on "Substances" as a key subject. We engage students in discussions and role-playing to navigate decisions they might face regarding smoking and substance use. We highlight the impact of substances on the brain, body, finances, and decision-making. Using a high-quality Pull Apart Torso model, we vividly illustrate these points. Our lessons incorporate the latest research from all health sectors, ensuring up-to-date information.
We are the largest external program provider in schools, emphasising environmental health through lessons on reducing, reusing, and recycling. We teach how individuals and communities can collaborate to improve their surroundings.
Our program also promotes an active lifestyle and healthy eating, particularly encouraging water consumption. We work closely with whanau groups to integrate Life Education Trust's messages into our communities, fostering multi-generational education. This approach ensures everyone has the opportunity to live a healthy, active life and positively impact each other.

 

 

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

The project is dedicated to the youth of our community, ensuring that all genders and ethnicities are treated equally and without prejudice. A core pillar of Life Education is the belief that every child is unique and special. We actively encourage tamariki to embrace inclusivity by recognizing and respecting the individuality of others, whether those differences are cultural, ethnic, or attitudinal. This approach fosters a deeper sense of community and mutual respect among all

Project: School Holiday Programme for Young People with Disabilities and siblings

Location:

The Depot, Sir Lloyd Drive, Pakuranga, Auckland 

Summary:

We seek funding for a winter school holiday programme, for school age children and
young people with special needs and disabilities, to enjoy with their siblings, in the
mid-year school holidays. We will provide indoor and outdoor activities, and
book external facilitators, such as a magician, a drumming workshop facilitator, a circus
group to provide workshops and entertainment and an inclusive dance group. Activities will include crafts, sensory play,
sand play, sports, music and dance, cooking, community outings, along with
activities for quiet time.

Expertise:

Lifekidz has been operating for 20 years and many staff have been with us for many years. Our Board includes parents raising young people with high needs. We offer specialised training for new staff to show them how to assist our clients in a positive way,
baring in mind the vulnerabilities our attendees have. For example seizure, and tube-fed training. It is important that every person attending is shown care and compassion at all times. We are constantly revising our programmes to meet current needs, and include
indoor and outdoor activities and trips into the community.

Dates:

Promotion:

To all our families on newsletters regarding the school holiday programme, on our website, in our general newsletter and annual report. We are happy for local board members to visit during the school holiday programme so we can acknowledge the support personally.

 

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The community will benefit by having a well established programme for children & young people that is set in a positive environment. The programme includes community outings so young people with disabilities are visible as part of the community, and understanding of disability needs are increased. 
The need for our service is crucial to families so they can have the respite needed when trying to meet the needs of special needs/disabled young people. We have a very high ratio of support workers to children, in receiving this funding we are also able to continue offering rewarding employment opportunities to young people of Auckland, and to provide them with the training and work experience to continue along the path of working with children/adults that have disabilities. 
There are so very few places in Auckland that provide this supported service and we are fortunate to be able to provide it to local families. We have created fabulous facilities for our young people to enjoy which allow us to run an enriching community programme and we have built up the knowledge of what is required for it to be successful and rewarding.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

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

It is vitally important that our young clients are valued and provided for, and seen as part of the community. It is very challenging for young people with profound disabilities to enjoy out of school activities such as playgrounds, parks and reserves, and social connections with others, without support. Social get togethers and play dates are impossible when young people need such a high level of support, and at an age where their peers can independently enjoy community facilities, or can be dropped off with a friend, our clients need a programme with this built in.
By employing school leavers and young people as support staff our clients have trusted companions close to their age, who fill the day with fun activities and accompany them out into the community to meet others, and enjoy the facilities. They encourage social
connections between the group, and help our young clients have a sense of belonging in the community, positively impacting their mental health and wellbeing. Support staff learn to listen to their voice, while caring for Lifekiidz attendees and in turn many of the activities are responding to the needs of the young people.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our venue in Pakuranga is inclusive and accessible for people with disabilities. It has
playground equipment, water play, sandpit and sensory room. The indoor room has space
for soccer, cricket, basketball and kike track riding. Everywhere is wheelchair accessible and
safe for people with high needs and encourages participation and a sense of fun. We have
quiet areas and soft furniture where young people can come out of wheelchairs to stretch
muscles and change position to avoid skin irritation issues from sitting.

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*

The venue is smoke free inside and out, and water is freely available to all participants.
Healthy snacks and fruit are always available and any waste is placed in council composting bags. 
Lifekidz owns and operates an accessible 12 seater van which takes attendees into the community. Our programme offers an outdoor play area and lots of balls and sports equipment to keep the participants active and healthy. Inside we offer music and dance sessions, games and activities like drumming and yoga.
Onsite sausage sizzles are a fun way of having a shared kai session with minimal packaging, using paper napkins.

Additional information to support the application:

We are told this school holiday programme is an absolute lifeline for families who are raising children and young people with highly complex needs and profound disabilities including severely autistic. There is no other programme locally that provides the level of
care that Lifekidz offers, so if this programme doesn't run, they will be extremely desperate, and need to source one of the very few alternatives outside of their local community.

Summary:

We are seeking funding for the expansion of community-based basketball program designed to promote physical development and active participation among local children and youth. The funding will enable us offering more accessible basketball courses, enhance training facilities, and provide specialized coaching to address barriers such as limited sports options for girls with cultural or language challenges. We aim to cultivate essential life skills like teamwork, discipline, leadership, and confidence, while fostering a sense of belonging and enthusiasm for sports within the Chinese community. Additionally, the program will enhance sports communication across diverse communities, bridging cultural and linguistic gaps to promote mutual understanding and inclusivity. For this purpose, we are applying for costs related to venue hire, equipment, and coaching staff.

Expertise:

Our organization has substantial expertise in delivering similar projects. We have been running this basketball program for two semesters and currently have 56 students and their families participating, which indicates a solid community foundation. Mr. Yang, our coach, brings over 15 years of experience as a basketball and volleyball coach. Additionally, he serves as the U17 coach at Macleans College, where he has been providing technical support to the team. Furthermore, we maintain strong collaborative relationships with Sport Auckland and ActiveAsian, which enhances our ability to deliver high-quality programs and engage with the broader community. This combination of a strong participant base, experienced coaching, and strategic partnerships ensures the successful delivery of our projects.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Our basketball programme delivers significant community benefits by promoting health, inclusivity, and social cohesion. Designed for second-generation Chinese immigrant children and youth aged three and above, the project fosters physical activity, teamwork, and communication through group sports.

In order to promote the traditional culture of the Chinese nation and the concept of multicultural integration and development in NZ, Our association not only insists on regular weekly rehearsals and creative activities at Te Tuhi Arts Trust Centre, but also actively participates in cultural exchange activities in the community. We have performed many times in nearby nursing homes to give consolation performances. The elderly in the nursing homes share the charm of multicultural art, which is deeply loved by community residents and nursing home residents.

Project: Supporting Victims of Crime, Suicide, Family Harm and Traumatic Events

Location:

C/- Ormiston Police Station, 50 Ormiston Road, East Tamaki

Summary:

To contribute to our front-line service delivery costs in supporting victims of crime, suicide, family harm, and traumatic events.

Expertise:

With over 40 years’ experience, we are a trusted organisation with a strong whakapapa and equally strong future focus that is culturally informed. We embrace opportunities to learn and innovate so we can meet the growing need for the exceptional support that victims deserve. 
In our work, Māori are significantly more likely to experience interpersonal violence and to be highly victimised. Māori also experience significantly higher rates of suicide. Our role therefore comes with considerable responsibility to meet this need in ways that will best support Māori. We have great potential to contribute to a future of prosperity for Māori envisaged by Te Tiriti.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

In the past 12 months we have responded to the needs of 2,547 people in the Howick Local Boards region, and we can be confident that they were all well supported during their time of need. Some of these incidents included aggravated robbery, family harm, fatal motor vehicle crashes, fire, fraud, home invasion, homicide, rape and sexual attacks, sudden deaths, workplace accidents, and suicides. 
Being a victim of a crime or traumatic event has a much wider negative social impact on the community than just that of the victim. We estimate that for every victim we support up to ten other people are also affected: whānau, friends, work colleagues and employers. 
Our timely, personalised support and intervention helps victims to keep contributing to their community in their paid and voluntary work, keeps whānau together and reduces the ongoing economic and social costs of mental health issues like post-traumatic stress disorder.
The whole community benefits when there are local support networks who care and are generous in volunteering their time.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Build community resilience

We know crime, family harm, suicide and traumatic events can turn someone’s world upside down.  We want people to know they're not alone and that there are people in the community to help them.
Crime and traumatic events can affect anyone and have long-lasting emotional, physical, social and financial impacts. Victims often find whānau and friends don’t know how to support them, and society may blame them rather than accept that bad things can happen to good people. 
Only 24% of victims in Aotearoa report crimes and many do not achieve resolution through the legal system, which tends to focus more on offenders. Victim Support is here to fill these gaps. Research shows services like ours help restore victims’ faith in society, rebuild trust and foster community care. Our support helps victims in many ways including feeling listened to, less stressed, informed, empowered and staying engaged with the justice system.

Our goal is to provide a service that promotes equity and better outcomes for Māori by being culturally responsive and effective. We are focused on finding innovative ways to ensure that victims' voices are heard. It is vital that both our stakeholders and society understand victims' needs and the importance of supporting them. We continue to develop our service so that it is genuinely victim-centric and we do this by underpinning our services with our Te Tiriti o Waitangi framework, Te Whiringa, so that all areas of our organisation breathe Te Tiriti principles, enabling us to uplift Māori, draw on research, and the lived experiences of our clients.

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

The rainbow community who has much higher incidents of being victimised, and refugees and migrants are also well supported by our organisation. 22% of people who access our services are Māori which is disproportionate to them being 16% of our population. Pasifika people make up 8% of the people who access our services. We continue to develop our work programmes to implement specific programmes to address the inequities in these statistics.

Additional information to support the application:

Government’s Real Consequences for Crime statement acknowledges that current victim support systems are strained and relying too heavily on volunteers and goodwill. We strongly agree, so invite our stakeholders to think beyond Victim Support as a mere gesture of goodwill to society. Supporting victims is key to justice system engagement, crime prevention, public safety and confidence, and savings across multiple social indices.
We can be a game-changer for victims, the criminal justice system and the country which is supported by international research showing that supporting victims results in significant savings across multiple health, social, and economic indices, including crime prevention.

Sport and recreation

Project: Safety Fencing and Waterblaster Purchase

Location:

Yvette Williams Track, Lloyd Elsmore Park

Summary:

We are seeking funding to further improve the safety of our newly-upgraded trackside building by installing a secure fence around the rear side.  This will prevent unauthorised access to the roof, ensuring the safety of all track visitors.  In addition, we are requesting funding to purchase a high-powered water blaster.  This essential equipment will allow us to regularly clean the athletics track by removing dangerous dirt, moss and mildew that accumulate during the winter months.  These hazards create a slippery surface that poses a serious risk to those using the track. With this investment we can maintain a safe and secure environment for all track users year-round.

Expertise:

The club has recently completed a major upgrade of our trackside building, including adding a tuck shop, spacious toilet block, mini gym, and storage area— all on budget. We have also prioritised safety with key enhancements such as the installation of sturdy metal railings along the roof.  These upgrades both improve the overall experience for our members and ensure a safer environment for everyone who uses the facilities. 
 
To maintain the track’s quality and safety, our dedicated volunteers waterblast the track and surrounding areas annually using personal equipment. This crucial maintenance prevents accidents and preserves the track’s condition. However, securing proper equipment would allow us to uphold higher safety standards and maintain an optimal environment for athletes throughout the year.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The installation of a safety fence and the purchase of a waterblaster at Pakuranga Athletic Club provide significant community benefits. The safety fence ensures that particularly children are kept safe from the dangers of accessing the roof, reducing the risk of accidents and enhancing peace of mind for parents, guardians and event officials. This protective measure creates a safer environment for all club members, encouraging families to participate in activities without concern.
 
The waterblaster ensures the track remains clean, removing dirt, moss, and mildew that can create slippery and hazardous conditions. By maintaining a clean and safe track, the club ensures that athletes, from young children to adults, can train and compete in an optimal environment, reducing the risk of injury and improving the overall experience.
 
Together, these initiatives foster a more secure, welcoming, and inclusive space for the entire community, encouraging greater participation in athletics and promoting physical activity, health, and well-being.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

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

The installation of a safety fence at Pakuranga Athletic Club, designed to keep unauthorised people off the trackside building roof, and the purchase of a waterblaster to maintain a clean and safe track, directly align with the Local Board’s priority of ensuring that sports and recreational opportunities meet the needs of the community. These improvements prioritise the safety and well-being of all track users, particularly the younger participants, while also maintaining a high-quality, hazard-free environment for athletes of all ages. By addressing both safety concerns and track maintenance, the club is actively enhancing the overall experience for the community, fostering an inclusive and secure space for sports and recreation. These initiatives reflect the club’s commitment to creating a safe, accessible, and well-maintained venue that supports the diverse needs of the local community.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Particularly being able to clean the track of dirt, moss and mildew more regularly will enhance the safety of track users who have a disability.  Special focus is on enhancing track safety for Howick Pakuranga Special Olympics athletes who use the track every weekend, including over the winter when the track is most susceptible to mildew.

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

The health and safety enhancements of the fence construction will benefit all genders, ages and ethnicities equally.  The safety enhancements of the waterblaster will likely be most beneficial to more vulnerable track users, notably children and older people.

We would use partial funds to pay for the cost of the fence construction.  We seen this work as essential - we cannot go for another season having the roof exposed to unauthorised users.  Club funds would be used to fund any shortfall (which could comprise activities and events scheduled for next season).  A shortfall in funding for the waterblaster could be addressed through fundraising activities and/or seeking other sources of grant funding.

Summary:

we provide health and social opportunities for our members who are mostly the elderly to be able to connect and live healthy happy lives. These activities include sporting ,cultural and arts events.This creates a place and space for them to be able to participate and contribute.

Expertise:

We have been deleloping and delivering these projects for 15 years. We build on the
knowledge that we get from our members about what they can do and what they are
requiring. We range from hiring professional teachers or coaches to organising and
participating in public events. We have been instrumental in developing Chinese festival
celebrations around the local board area. This has created a sense of belonging for not only
our members but also others from the Chinese community and provided education to the wider public about Chinese culture. Some of our activities, include dancing, singing, English,
playing musical instruments, table tennis, badminton, etc.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The association actively strives to develop activities that are aimed at the elderly. These are designed to improve their quality of life, maintain health, keep fit, and reduce diseases and increase life span. This is also through creating opportunities to connect and socialize. Many of our members do not speak English and can feel isolated in New Zealand. So we create opportunities to connect as well as offering English language classes. Additionally, we encourage participation in our wider community, we try to explain how
local government works, how to vote, etc. We also try to educate the wider community about Chinese culture to create a better understanding and appreciation. So we can all live together in harmony in Howick.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Support community groups to become more sustainable

The Pakuranga Chinese Association's project aligns with several key priorities outlined in the Howick Local Board Plan.
 
1. Fostering Community Engagement and Connection
 
The Howick Local Board emphasizes the importance of communities feeling safe, engaged, and connected. By organizing cultural events, workshops, and social gatherings, our project provides platforms for community members to actively participate and contribute, thereby strengthening community bonds and promoting inclusivity. 
HĀPAI TE HAUORA
 
2. Celebrating Cultural Diversity
 
Recognizing and celebrating the diverse cultures within the community is a priority for the Howick Local Board. Our project showcases Chinese traditions, arts, and customs, enriching the cultural tapestry of the area and fostering mutual respect and understanding among different ethnic groups. 
HĀPAI TE HAUORA
 
3. Supporting Youth and Elderly Engagement
 
The board is committed to supporting both youth and the elderly in the community. Our project includes programs specifically designed for young people and seniors, providing them with opportunities to engage, learn, and share experiences, thereby enhancing their well-being and sense of belonging. 
HĀPAI TE HAUORA
 
4. Enhancing Community Safety and Well-being
 
Ensuring that people feel safe and have access to services that support their well-being is a key outcome for the board. Our project promotes social cohesion and provides support networks, contributing to a safer and more supportive community environment. 
HĀPAI TE HAUORA
 
By aligning with these priorities, our project not only supports the Howick Local Board's vision but also contributes to the overall well-being and vibrancy of the community.

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

We support disabled members to live an everyday life in everyday places; whether that's for education, work, social activities and activities of daily living. Only by being present and visible in our local community, having opportunities to do what able bodied people take for granted can disabled people feel valued and able to contribute. Young people with disability need to be able to access social and recreational activities and participate freely and sometimes this requires and skills and knowledge that they do not yet have. We know these skills must be taught, worked on and then used in the real world to be successful.
We liaise with local community groups and businesses to use their services, be visible and part of our community joining in just like abled bodied people.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Pregnant mothers and families caring for young children will feel supported and empowered through receiving support, advice and practical items free of charge and judgement from our charity. They will feel less financial burden, stress and anxiety knowing they have access to clean and good condition clothing for themselves and their babies and children. Providing access to age appropriate toys and books for the families within our community will help children develop vital sensory and learning skills, while forming a bond with their care givers through reading and play. By providing our services to a large range of social and support services and the general public, it is less likely that families needing vital immediate help will be able to access support quickly. Taking in donations from the community of clothing, toys and books, bedding, baby essentials, strollers, bassinets etc means that there is far less items being thrown into the landfill each year. Having the cloth nappy bank supports the community by educating them about the importance of sustainability and being environmentally friendly, while helping ease the financial strain of disposable nappies, and reducing the amount of toxic disposable nappy waste being put in landfills.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Support community groups to become more sustainable

Pregnancy Help Auckland is committed to being a sustainable charity. Over 95% of our items we gift to families in need are second hand items donated by the local community. These items are then checked, sorted, cleaned if necessary, then used in packs. Generally the only items that are new are : Essential hygiene items like menstrual pads, nappies, basic hygiene items like body wash, shampoo, conditioner etc. We occasionally get donations from companies who have received items that have broken or damaged packaging, that would otherwise be thrown into landfill, or clothing that has been mislabeled or misprinted that would also go to landfill. 
We have a cloth nappy bank where we accept second hand cloth nappies and accessories, and make up size/age appropriate packs for families in need who are wanting to be more sustainable, and or are struggling with the financial burden of buying disposable nappies. We offer advice and education around how to clean and use cloth nappies as well. 
We have a partnership with multiple people who collect packs of unusable clothing, bedding and muslin/wraps etc, who then use the non stained or ripped areas, to create bibs, cuddly toys and other items, which they donate back to us. We are in talks with multiple textile recycling agencies to find a way to recycle all unusable items that we can not add to our packs due to large stains, rips, damage etc. 
Any large items like car seats and cots that we can not give out, are given to other local charities who do give out car seats and cots. 
We work with The Tamaki Community Recycling Center to collect second hand items that have been collected during the inorganic collections, which are then cleaned up and gifted to our families in need. 
A large amount of the families we work with, end up donating the clothing and items back to us once their children have grown out of them, this allows us to put them back into rotation to be given to another family in need.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

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

Nearly 60% of the families we support are Maori and Pacific Islanders. We work multiple Maori and Pacific lead and focused organizations such as Whare Tiaki Hauora, ME Family services, Maranga Faunau, and more. We have no criteria for support, which means anyone can access our help, either personally, or through another agency or organization.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our branch is located inside the Pakuranga Plaza, which has disability parking right out front, with easy ramps and flat floors for accessibility. We also work with many organizations who are already supporting vulnerable people. If the person does not have accessible transport, we will arrange for the pack to be dropped off to them, to ease their stress.

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*

We encourage the people we support to use cloth nappies instead of disposable nappies, we offer advice and information around healthy eating and baby led weaning. We include the bountiful packs in every pregnancy and newborn pack, these bountiful packs are widely used by midwives and medical professionals. They include up to date information around how to live a healthy lifestyle while pregnant and while raising young children. We have consulted with Plunket around the information they give to families and mimic this information, or refer them to the Plunket website which has all of the information needed. 
We source second hand donations from the community of essential items, and encourage the local communities to reuse and donate items instead of throwing them away, adding more unneeded waste to the landfill.

 

 

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

We support and help everyone, with zero criteria. We provide essential urgent support to anyone who is pregnant, or caring for young children. We are easily accessible via text, call, email and Facebook. We do not judge or discriminate against anyone, our job is to help support, and empower. We work with all ages, genders, and ethnicities.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Support activities that bring our diverse communities together

Our workshops are more than just low carbon - they are a way of bringing diverse groups together for a positive, creative, educational session. We explain that by upcycling, people are preventing extraction from Papatūānuku (water, soil, trees, biodiversity) and minimising landfill. But more than that - they are learning frugal living skills that require us to be resilient for the future.
 
 Learning these skills within a community setting provides participants with joy, a sense of satisfaction and of connectedness.

Project: Food Sustainability Amazing Race Challenge (EcoPlay Challenge)

Location:

Virtual. Winners will be invited to Botany Library and Pakuranga Library to receive their prizes.

Summary:

Janani leads a virtual Food Sustainability Amazing Race Challenge for individuals and teams in the Howick Local Board area over a six-month period. Participants complete eco-friendly food-related tasks over five weeks, earning points at each stage while learning about sustainable food production, consumption, and waste. The challenge fosters food resilience and encourages lasting behavior change through fun, engaging activities. Two winners and inspiring stories help motivate the community. Janani estimates the collective carbon emissions reduction impact of completed tasks, aligning with Auckland Council's Live Lightly initiative and the local board's community and climate action goals.

Expertise:

Janani's work brings together education, action, and community-driven change. She has delivered her innovative sustainability workshops and programs across libraries, community centres, schools, and businesses in Auckland since 2022. She has delivered her Food Stars (reduce food waste) workshops at locations like Botany Library, Mangere Bridge Library, Otahuhu Library, Stonefields School, Lynfield College, May Road School, Blockhouse Bay Library, Mt Albert Library, Mt Roskill Library, Wesley Community Centre, Oranga School, and Epsom Library. She has delivered her Materialize (conscious clothing consumption) workshops in Albert-Eden, and her Pioneers (sustainable living) workshops and her ten-week programs for businesses and communities in Albert-Eden and Puketepapa, with great success.  
Her work has recently been showcased by: 
- CCAN: https://www.ccan.org.nz/news/climate-catalyst-competition-winners

Promotion:

We plan to promote the project in the Howick local board area. We will design flyers that provide information about the project and how participants can be engaged. We will also use socials for promotion. The local board's support will be acknowledged in all
project activities. The local board's logo will be included in all project communications and promotional materials (flyers and videos).

 

Environmental benefits:  Participants will adopt actions that reduce their personal carbon footprint and become conscious food consumers. This reduces the overall carbon emissions of the community and reduces food waste in landfill.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The Food Sustainability Amazing Race Challenge will have a ripple effect, benefiting not only individual participants but also their families and the entire community by promoting environmentally responsible food practices and fostering a sense of shared responsibility for a greener, more sustainable future. 
The key benefits are:
- Reduced Environmental Impact: As program participants understand how food impacts their personal carbon footprint and adopt eco-friendly practices, they will be living low carbon lives and the overall environmental impact of the community is lowered. Participants will choose actions with an aim to Consume Less, Choose Better, Reduce Waste and Appreciate More.
- Increased Awareness & Community Cohesion: The program will raise awareness of local food systems, how food can impact health, the advantages of growing your own food, and of sustainability issues within the local community (like need for more vegetable gardens, and food waste in landfill), fostering a culture of environmental responsibility. Stories are shared which will strengthen belonging and unity, and winners will be celebrated and receive their prizes at a local library. This awareness and sharing of common sustainability goals can lead to better engagement, decisions, and actions at the local level.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Promote healthy living and sustainable lifestyles by supporting community-led initiatives, such as vegetable gardens, and by encouraging and educating the wider community about the benefits of growing your own food

The Food Sustainability Amazing Race Challenge directly supports the Howick Local Board’s priorities by fostering sustainable living, reducing waste, and strengthening community connections. Participants engage in eco-friendly tasks such as growing food, composting, sharing surplus produce, volunteering at community gardens, weekly food waste audit, and so forth - aligning with the board’s goals of climate action and community resilience.
 
The challenge is guided by four principles: making sustainability fun, showcasing its benefits, expanding climate action to all ages, and encouraging mindful waste reduction. Through hands-on activities and storytelling, it inspires participants to adopt lifelong sustainable habits.
 
As a virtual initiative, the challenge ensures accessibility and inclusivity across the Howick Local Board area. We anticipate over 50 teams to participate. Janani will engage local schools, libraries, businesses, community groups, and social media to maximize promotion, participation, and impact.

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*

During the Food Sustainability Amazing Race Challenge, participants receive valuable insights into sustainable food and reducing their personal carbon footprint. While our main focus is inspiring positive changes related to food like growing your own food or being involved in community-led initiatives or composting food scraps, participants will naturally shift away from less sustainable choices in
other areas as well over time. By modeling better behaviors, they influence family and friends to do the same.

Project: Triple P Parenting Course

Location:

Summary:

We are seeking funds to pay the wages for a family support worker to run Triple P Parenting (the Positive Parenting Programme) courses. Triple P Parenting supports parents by engaging families to address common child and adolescent social, emotional and behavioural challenges. The family support worker also sees clients one on one in some circumstances, to provide social work support to those that need it.

Expertise:

We have been providing Triple P Parenting for 10 years. Unfortunately, we have lost our funding for Triple P Parenting, which used to come from Oranga Tamariki. Like many organisations, our funding was cut without warning and without cause.

Project: To transport intellectually disabled athletes to sports training.

Location:

Howick Leisure Centre, Pakuranga Hall, Lloyd Elsmore Park track and pool. Highland Park Scout Hall, Get Strength Fitness Onehunga, Superstrike Papatotoe.

Summary:

All of our athletes have an intellectual disability. Therefore, we need to provide taxis for them to attend their regular sports training sessions. The cost of the taxi is subsidized by the total mobility scheme. Therefore, we are seeking funding for the balance of the cost. Our athletes need to get to and from training safely and most cannot access public transport, or it is not available at training times.  It is not appropriate for our athletes to have to walk to and from bus stops in the dark. Door to door taxis are the safest way to transport our Athletes.

Expertise:

We have been using taxis funding by Total Mobility and the Howick Local Board for several years. Special Olympics Howick-Pakuranga has been providing sports training for members of the community with an intellectual disability in the area for over 35 years. All programmes are run by volunteers experienced in not only the specific sport but also supporting and training people with a wide range of disabilities.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

More athletes will be able to travel safely to the sport they wish to participate in. All members of the community can join us. Special Olympics athletes enjoy their sports and become healthier and fitter, more active members of the community.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

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

We are the only organization that provides sporting and recreational opportunities for those members of the community that have an intellectual disability. There is a social aspect to our activities too, that makes people feel good about themselves and others. For many Special Olympics is the highlight of the week. It is well known that sports and being active are good for well being.

Project: Mapping our future: planning paths for success

Location:

Howick Historical Village

Summary:

This application seeks funding for the development, preparation, and writing of a new strategic plan for Howick Historical Village over  the next five years. Strategic planning is crucial because it provides a roadmap for achieving long-term objectives, identifying opportunities, and mitigating risks. We are fortunate to be able to work again with the team from Tim Walker Associates. They wrote our 2021-2024 strategic plan, which has proven to be the exact right plan needed to move us forward out of COVID and toward long-term success. The continuity will make a huge difference. Thank you.

Expertise:

Tim Walker Associates worked with the Society and the Village in the past to develop a fit-for-purpose document (see: https://www.historicalvillage.org.nz/reports) for 2021-2024. This plan has been crucial in providing consistency across staff turn-over and other significant challenges. While COVID delayed some of the key points, and others have been harder to implement, we have made headway in all 5 key areas: reputation, inclusion, governance, focus, sustainability. The Village is keen to work with this team again because they have already been through the research and built an understanding of the Village, which often takes critical time and increases costs. We have not been able to commence the project yet due to funding restrictions.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

With a strong strategic plan, the Village will have a defined, articulated, structured approach - formed around achievable objectives, creative initiatives, and actionable items that will continue to make history relevant to all visitors. 
 
The Village sees the repeatable, increased numbers of visitors (see graph included in Cover Letter dated 21 Feb 2025, attached as a supporting document) as showing a keen interest in the wider community to learn about history. Visitors want to engage with hands-on and experiential activities and explore the material culture of the past. The 2025-2023 Strategic Plan will help support Howick Historical Village to continue to be the most impactful living history museum in New Zealand. The plan is anticipated to expand on the five key areas identified in the 2021-2024 strategic plan: performance, customer focus, organisational capability, operational resources, and strategic communications. This document will impact the Village and the wider community into the next decade.   
 
The final document will: be available on the Village's website, be linked to all their job advertisements, guide the writing of performance review metrics, be provided as a supporting document for grant applications, and available for printing in hard copy should it be requested.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

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

The Village seeks your funding for the facilitation and creation of a new strategic plan for the next five years. Having a strong and fit-for-purpose strategic plan has been critical to leading the Village out of COVID and secure long-term success. It has provided direction, enhanced decision-making, improved resource management and increased operational efficiency. 
 
Although commenced well prior to the end of 2024, the Village’s efforts to secure funding for a strategic plan have not yet been successful despite two separate funding applications to other grant-making organizations. The current strategic plan has ended and because of these funding constraints, the Village team has not yet been able to undertake this important project. 
 
Because Tim Walker Associates worked with the Village in the past to develop a fit-for-purpose document (see: https://www.historicalvillage.org.nz/reports), they have already been through the painstaking ground-work that often takes critical time and can increase costs. The 5 key areas identified are: 
•           Transforming [the Village] from a reactive, off the radar organisation to a well-known, professional and must attend visitor attraction;
•           Growing [the Village's] audience, collaborating with other institutions, building partnerships, and engaging with the local community;
•           [The Village] will honour Te Tiriti o Waitangi and engage with Ngāi Tai on telling a more accurate history of this whenua;
•           [The] organisation will be future-proofed with a clear governance structure; and
•           [The Village's] funding streams will diversify, and [they] will grow our revenue to ensure the longevity of the organisation as an integral part of the story of Tāmaki Makaurau.
 
While COVID delayed some of the key points, and others have been harder to implement, the Village has made headway in all 5 areas.  Indeed, they have: 
•           secured grant funding from Howick Local Board to support Te Tiriti training for the Board and staff; 
•       attended governance workshops held by Te Taumata Toi-a-Iwi; 
•           run fun, entertaining, and educating events and public programming including popular Halloween and Christmas events, consistently well-attended monthly Live Days, and held a recent public talks, including one by a visiting scholar exploring the history of interior decoration in New Zealand; 
•           presented well received and thoughtful installations exploring stories from tangata whenua and Moana Oceania developed by the Village's Education Manager & Storytelling Coordinator; and 
•           saw 32,567 visitors in FY23/24, a record number for the Village!
 
Not only is a current and valid strategic plan required as part of Auckland Council’s Toi Whītiki, the Village also needs to ensure that another one is in place, soon, to guide the next five years. Strategic planning is crucial because it provides a roadmap for achieving long-term objectives, identifying opportunities, and mitigating risks. Working with a thoughtful, talented facilitator for the project made the whole process easier on the Society's volunteer Board members and Village's senior staff. The Village is fortunate that Tim Walker, who guided the last plan, is available to work with them again. The continuity will make a huge difference.
 
On pages 19 – 20 of the Howick Local Board Strategic Plan 2023, in the Ō Tātou Tāngata | Our People section, the Board’s stated goal is “to enable people to engage with local history and share their diverse cultures. We acknowledge that that the areas local heritage, Māori and European, plays a significant role in what we wish to achieve, but other cultures are increasingly coming to the fore. We will continue to support this diversity via our festivals, arts, culture, music and heritage activities and experiences – including our ongoing support of the Howick Historical Village.”  
 
The Village’s 2021-2024 strategic plan helped the team prepare for and implement actions and initiatives that supported this goal. This document provided a unique point of reference during discussions and served as a way forward through challenging times. A strong 2025-2030 strategic plan will allow the Village to build on and expand the work done up to this point.

Project: Jogakbo & Bojagi: Crafting a Sustainable Future Workshops

Location:

Highland Park Library

Summary:

"Jogakbo & Bojagi: Crafting a Sustainable Future Workshops"  focus on repurposes leftover fabric scraps, which reduces textile waste. Instead of discarding unused materials, artisans and crafters use them to create functional and beautiful bojagi, encouraging a cycle of reuse. Jogakbo, being a patchwork method of sewing, utilises small pieces of fabric, minimising waste and maximising the utility of available materials.

Expertise:

The teacher from our organization has a major in Family and Consumer Sciences and is an expert in conducting workshops for the Korean community in Auckland, particularly during various Korean celebrations.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Running bojagi and jogakbo workshops offers numerous benefits to the community, particularly in minimizing fabric waste and promoting environmental sustainability. By teaching participants how to repurpose fabric into beautiful wrapping materials, these workshops encourage the reuse of textiles, significantly reducing the reliance on single-use paper bags for grocery shopping and gift wrapping. 
 
Participants learn to view fabric not just as waste but as a valuable resource, creatively transforming it into useful items. This not only cuts down on waste but also fosters a culture of sustainability and resourcefulness within the community. Additionally, these workshops serve as a platform for cultural exchange, bringing diverse community members together to explore and appreciate Korean traditions. As participants interact and collaborate, they build connections, enhance their understanding of each other’s cultures, and contribute to a more inclusive and harmonious community. 
 
In essence, the bojagi and jogakbo workshops not only promote eco-friendly practices but also create an engaging environment for cultural learning and community bonding.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Support activities that bring our diverse communities together

Bojagi and jogakbo are traditional Korean textile practices that not only celebrate cultural heritage but also promote sustainability and community cohesion.This workshops that focus on bojagi and jogakbo bring together individuals from diverse backgrounds, facilitating the exchange of cultural stories, skills, and traditions. This builds understanding and appreciation for different cultures.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - 1 Wheelchair Accessibility: Choose venues that are fully accessible, with ramps, wide doorways, and accessible restrooms to 
   accommodate participants in wheelchairs or those with mobility challenges.
2 Seating Arrangements: Ensure that seating is adjustable and comfortable for individuals with different needs, allowing for space for 
   wheelchairs or other assistive devices.
3 Sensory-Friendly Environment: Create a comfortable environment by minimizing sensory overload, such as adjusting lighting and 
   sound levels to accommodate participants with sensory sensitivities.

Healthy environment approach:

Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Encourage the reduction of carbon emissions or increase community resilience to the impacts of climate change*

By teaching participants how to creatively repurpose old or leftover fabrics into new items like wraps, bags, or home decor, these workshops emphasize the importance of reusing materials. This directly reduces textile waste, contributing to less clutter in landfills.
Participants learn alternatives to single-use items, such as traditional paper bags and plastic wraps, thus decreasing overall consumption of these harmful materials.

Expertise:

I have personally been on the committee with a majority of others since 2019.   The organisation has been providing toys to the community since 1995.  We have been in our current location since 2019 and even through the difficult covid times of 2020 we have steadily increased our membership and the number of toys we have for hire annually.
 
This year we are celebrating our 30th birthday (probably June 14th)  and will invite members of the local board to attend again.

Environmental benefits:  Reducing toys to landfill

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

We provide affordable toys for all that wish to participate.  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 buy new, 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 particularly noisy toys or large outdoor toys.  
 
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.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Support community groups to become more sustainable

Toy Libraries by design promote sustainability, which has always been a huge focus for all 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.  We are part of the Toy library federation and frequently swap toy parts with other libraries within new zealand.  When the toy is at the end of their life, we put it in our matariki toy sale. 
 
We aim to provide a friendly, warm and welcoming place for families to come browse our massive range of quality toys and try and promote sustainability messages as often as we can. We are very careful with our toy selections and really try to buy toys that will stand the test of time and not just be played with a few times and end up in landfill.  I am our toy buyer and weekly I scour trademe and facebook market place for popular toys we would like a second of, or replacement parts we need to keep our toys on the shelves. So we are forever updating our toy range without always having to purchase new and have packaging to dispose of.

Yes - We have designated accessible carparks, are located on the ground floor, wide doorways and lots of open areas to easily maneuver even the largest of wheelchairs.

Healthy environment approach:

Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages

- purchase good quality toys that stand the test of time, we detest cheap plastic toys with a passion
- dispose of packaging responsibly
-we prefer to buy good quality second hand where we can as not adding more packaging to landfill
- we offer a reusable party pack with drink dispenser, cake stand, bowls, cups, plates and bunting.  
-repair where we can sometimes with the help of mens shed
-replace parts wherever possible, toy library federation of New Zealand has a facebook page we often share parts with other libraries
-trade me and market place have lots of treasures we find replace missing pieces or just add to our library much loved toys no longer available to buy new.  
-promote sustainability messages as often as we can

 

 

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

No.  The toy library is for all, we actually encourage caregivers to go against typical stereotypes and girls take home cars/dinosaurs and boys babies and prams for one example.

Project: Tread Lightly community and school  environmental education

Location:

Schools and community events in the Howick Local Board area

Summary:

Our project is for the Tread Lightly Caravan and Tread Lightly e-van to visit three primary schools and attend three community events in the Howick Local Board area.  As a result,  more than 1,000 tamariki and thousands more adults (depending on the community event) living and visiting the Howick Local Board area will  have the opportunity to experience our award-winning environmental education programme. Local Board members and the media will be invited to attend the school visits and community events.

Expertise:

To date, the TLC  has delivered our educational programme at more than 300 schools and dozens of  community events.  Over the past 18 years we have established a strong reputation of providing high impact environmental educational experiences.  This includes numerous schools in the Howick Local Board area. Our focus on environmental education at community events is relatively new as we have only recently fitted out our new fully electric van.  Our original Tread Lightly Caravan has, however, , attended many Eco-fest community events.  We engage highly experienced passionate teachers to deliver our programmes.

Dates:

05/05/2025 - 19/12/2025

People reached:

% of participants from Local Board

Promotion:

•           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 Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths

 

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 visitors to the Tread Lightly Caravan and Tread Lightly e-van 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.
 
Based on feedback received to date, the Tread Lightly educational experience trigger and amplifies 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

·     Support community groups to become more sustainable

Our proposed Tread Lightly Caravan project supports the  Howick Local Board objectives to  “support community groups to become more sustainable' and ‘to promote healthy living  and sustainable lifestyles by supporting community-led initiatives'. 
 
 Our hands-on environmental interactive activities support school students and the community to  make small changes in what they eat, what transport choices they make and how they heat their homes, to reduce their  impact on our natural environment.   At the same time we emphasise the broader benefits from these lifestyle choices which include saving money and eating healthily with improved health outcomes. Visitors 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 17 years, TLC visitors experiencing our 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. 
For community events, where possible  we would prioritise involvement of Māori tamariki and rangatahi to help upskill them in environmental education and enhance work prospects

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our project supports all genders, ages and ethnicities but does preferentially provide opportunities  for school-aged children, Māori and Pacifika and females.  
 
 
Disabilities
 
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:

Promote smoke-free messages, 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*

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.

This is a family-friendly entertainment event that offers an alternative form of safe and inclusive entertainment to local families looking for a fun and unique night out. This event will promote cultural diversity through performances by Kapa Haka, while also giving local performers a genuine pathway into performance in the professional wrestling entertainment industry. This funding will also allow us to open up our ticketing to provide free admission for local community groups in the area such as Pakuranga College, Lifekidz Trust, Howick Intermediate, Fencibles Soccer Teams, Howick Leisure Centre, and other community groups.

Expertise:

Aotearoa Wrestling is the leading professional wrestling entertainment organisation in New Zealand, and have presented the largest events since the 1980s. These events are usually in partnership with local venues such as Pakuranga College, Westlake Boys High School, Forum North in Whangarei, Whanganui War Memorial Hall and Avondale College, with 2025's end of year show scheduled in November at Due Drop Arena. The project is lead by Aaron Henry, who has over 16 years of experience as both a performer and creative writer in both the local and international professional scenes. Aaron is also the only active full-time professional wrestler in New Zealand, and the only Maori professional wrestler in the world.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·     Māori led - either a Māori organisation that is applying or Māori directed (came about as a request from Māori), 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

Aotearoa Wrestling is the first professional wrestling entertainment organisation directed by a Maori Director, and is the only organisation of it's kind to feature 6 Maori professional entertainment wrestlers in a single event. The main performance of the event will star the first Maori NZ National Champion in the organisation's history, and it is the first wrestling event to be named after a Maori concept (Matariki).
 
The event will be opened with a Karakia, and Kapa Haka performances, as per traditional Maori Tikanga, and will also feature Maori performances and music throughout the event. It will be the most heavily-Maori focused professional wrestling entertainment event in history.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - We have specific sections that allow safe, and engaging positions in the live event for disabled audience members with wheelchairs, and we also have ticketing options for carers and caregivers to also attend with the audience member without having to pay for a full price ticket. Our security are used to dealing with people with additional accessibility needs and our ushers will be able to safely show everybody their seats. In addition to this, we do offer local disabled education providers in the area with up to five family passes (i.e. 25 free tickets).

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

All of our events are smoke and alcohol-free; our organic waste is donated to the Panmure Community Garden, and all excess rubbish from the event is taken to our own facility and the waste is discarded there, so as to not overflow any waste around the venue. Water and low calorie food and drink are the only food that we provide, although we do often have a local food truck provide other food options at the venue. The event has at least seven bus stops within 5 minutes walking distance from the venue; and our front of house staff are also able to offer to call taxis if need be. Our events also advertise local wrestling organisations where people can go to and train for health and fitness reasons.

 

 

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

The event performance represents all demographics - men, women and non-binary performers; with most performers being over 20 years old. In terms of performance, our performers are from a range of ethnic backgrounds, including: Maori, Samoan, Tongan, Cook Island, Pakeha, Scottish, English, Guyanese and Fijian Descent - while also having British performers. 
 
We also have two transgender/non-binary performers, as well as openly gay trainees, and the first women's performer that will perform alongside men during the event. We also have a history of catering to disabled and autistic audience members who have been a staple in our events since our inception. 
 
While the performance of the event will be over-20 year olds, the entertainment product itself is suitable for children and families of all ages and is primarily targeted toward the 8-16 year old demographic.

Project: Youthline Helpline Support for Howick Youth

Location:

Youthline Manukau, 145 St George Street, Papatoetoe, Auckland

Summary:

Youthline ensures that young people know where to get help and can access support when they need it. Specifically, we are here to support all young people including those who are struggling (with their mental health and/or other issues), as well as young people who want to learn, grow and give back to their community. Across our services and particularly through our Helpline, we continue to see increased levels of complexity and risk.
 
Our Helpline is the first point of contact for thousands of rangatahi and their whānau seeking help each year and we are requesting a contribution to ensure that our Helpline service can continue to support the young people of Howick and their whānau.

Expertise:

With over 54 years’ experience, Youthline Auckland is recognised as a leader in the youth sector and has a proven track record in successfully delivering mental health support to youth in need. Youthline is dedicated to effective partnerships and fostering interdisciplinary collaboration. Our work heavily relies on significant community participation and collaboration, which are crucial for delivering effective services to young people. By consistently emphasising interdisciplinary collaboration, ethical standards, transparency, and accountability, Youthline is well-equipped to succeed as a mental health charity. Youthline has played a leadership role in youth mental health and addictions intervention work across New Zealand so we set ourselves high standards to ensure that the very best support is available for young people and their families.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Our Helpline acts as a doorway for young people to receive further support. A young person will often contact the Helpline with a presenting issue, however upon further reflection and discussion with a Helpline counsellor decide that they would like additional support. They are then linked with local support services to assist their ongoing development. 
 
Research shows that when young people are engaged in community activities, linked with whānau, and given the opportunity to participate feel that they are part of something and encouraged to reach their potential, that risk taking behaviour is reduced. Evidence suggests services such as Youthline’s, which are culturally safe and responsive, can foster resilience and promote healing. Services which deliver interventions with a specific focus on resilience building, can mitigate depressive symptoms and reduce risk of suicidality and long-term adverse outcomes (Kimball and Keene, 2016)
 
It is with comprehensive training and support that our volunteers can deliver the highest possible level of support to rangatahi. In the Youthline 50 Year Impact External Review, Helpline volunteers reported gaining a wide range of useful skills from being a volunteer. In addition, there were key impacts for family and friends around raised awareness of mental health.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 Howick

·     Build community resilience

Youthline works inclusively with youth, from those young people who are most vulnerable to youth leaders who are championing change.
 
In the last 5 years, Youthline has seen an unprecedented increase in the rate of mental distress amongst young people. We know that the youth mental health crisis is not showing signs of abating. In FY24 our teams managed 357,014 contacts from 14,725 unique clients, an increase of 38% and 29.6% respectively from FY23. For the year ending March 2025 we are on track to support 18,000 unique clients via our Helpline service.
 
Last year we talked to young people across New Zealand about the critical issues they are facing, from social media to the impacts of extreme weather events, and the ongoing impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic. Their insights are captured in our Youthline State of the Generation 2023 Report and they make sobering reading:  
 
Covid-19
Covid-19 had a profound effect on how young people felt about themselves and the world around them. Two years on, the percentage of young people for whom the following issues have started or worsened are: Stress (44%), Anxiety (38%), Economic uncertainty/debt (36%), Loneliness (33%), Schooling/education (33%).  
 
Vaping
This is a key issue for young teens aged 13 – 15 years old. Amongst 16 - 24 year olds, vaping is perceived to be more of an issue than other substances such as smoking, alcohol and drugs. 
 
Extreme weather impacts and economic uncertainty  
One in four young people surveyed said they had been affected by recent extreme weather events. Of those, two in four reported stress or mental health issues being exacerbated as a result. Young people stressed by extreme weather events are fearful more extreme weather will occur and concerned about the changing climate.  
 
Economic uncertainty is becoming more of an issue for young people, with 10% identifying it as the biggest issue facing young people, compared to just 4% in 2021.
 
Social media  
Nearly half of young people surveyed (49%) viewed social media as a key issue facing their generation, with the greatest concern being its effect on mental health and potential to cause social problems such as bullying and setting unrealistic expectations. The addictive and pervasive nature of social media is also of concern for one in three. 
 
It’s clear that mental health remains a key issue for young people, with three in four young people surveyed in our Youthline State of the Generation 2023 report agreeing that mental health is a problem for their generation.
 
The Helpline is a national, multichannel telehealth service providing access across the whole of New Zealand. This service enables us to be available to approximately 850,000 young people living in New Zealand aged 12–24 years including over 100,000 young people (12%) who are living in rural parts of New Zealand where there is evidence that deprivation and lack of access to support services is felt more acutely. 
 
The free Youthline Helpline is at the heart of our mahi and provides crucial support to young people who may be vulnerable, isolated or marginalised. Young people in need who contact us through our Helpline often feel lonely, alone, disengaged and desperate. They often have a reduced sense of belonging to family, school or community. 
 
Via our Helpline service rangatahi are equipped with skills and insights on how to build self-esteem and improve mental-health, how to actively problem-solve, recover from setbacks and build resilience. Through their improved emotional and self-management skills rangatahi are less likely to fall into helplessness, depression, addictive behaviours, dangerous relationships and unemployment. We aim to ensure that the young people we work with have clear pathways from school to work and we aim to engender a sense of belonging to their family, school and the community in which they live. 
 
Young people, via contact with Youthline Helpline are provided with support that helps them to
 
- Gain increased confidence/self-esteem
- Develop motivation and feel inspired 
- Identify their support systems 
- Gain insight from looking at situation or emotions in a different way/perspective
- Process feelings and emotions
- Improve relationships 
- Feel less isolated and have a sense of belonging 
- Set goals and make plans
- Improve their wellbeing
- Build and preserve resilience to respond to future adverse events 
- Link in with other agencies through referrals for personalised support
- Contribute positively to their own community
 
Youth will:
- be connected to themselves, their passions, communities and each other to build their sense of self-esteem, agency and purpose. Holding space for connection, collaboration and community building.
 
- find a safe place to turn to when they need to, where they feel supported to deal with the hard stuff, to stabilise and reach safety.
 
- be empowered to believe in themselves and to live a life that they choose as we believe in and recognise their strengths and inspire hope.
 
Research also shows Youthline’s strengths include having trained volunteers who can help and with young people supporting other young people. A conversation on the Helpline gives these young people an opportunity to talk through their stressors and issues while exploring their internal and external resources, placing them at the heart of their own solutions and supporting positive decision making towards their own wellbeing. 
 
Providing a free 24 hours per day, 365 days a year, multi-channel service means Youthline can respond immediately to young people with mild to moderate/severe, and imminent risk (suicide and/or abuse), however we are also well placed to provide a continuum of support options through our wraparound services. These include easy access to free counselling (online or in-person) and/or programmes specifically focused on equipping young people with the skills they need to build resilience and achieve positive mental health outcomes. We consider the safety of every young person (or concerned family member) as paramount. Where opportunities for additional supports are identified or issues requiring escalation, Youthline is well positioned to support this process. 
 
Our experience has shown us that young people overwhelmingly prefer the anonymity, safety, and ease of using text-based communications especially if they are vulnerable to immediate harm. Text based contacts are nearly double those of phone calls to our Helpline (1800 text-based conversations vs 907 phone calls over the last 2 months) and demand for webchat is increasing all the time (640 contacts over the same period despite being available for only 12 hours a day). These considerations are critical as our Helpline is often the first service where young people disclose extremely challenging life events - including when they are experiencing abuse, and/or feeling suicidal.
 
To support the increased need in the overnight service, and responsive to youth feedback, Youthline’s has scaled up to also offer webchat, Instagram, and WhatsApp Helpline channels.  By continuing to innovate through adopting new technologies that drive productivity, utilising new digital channels and by staying informed of youth needs by youth, we can continue to evolve our service to provide flexible and responsive mental health support options for young people where, when and how they want them.
 
Engagement with Youthline is providing young people with a life changing opportunity to access support services to help them cope with life’s stresses and connect in a healthy way with peers, friends and family. In supporting these young people Youthline is very much committed to promoting healthy, safe, sustainable and active lifestyles.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

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

With our Māori Development Strategy Te Ara Hou as a guide, we purposely prioritise Māori with our design, promotion and services delivery. Social media campaigns that prioritise the voices of rangatahi Māori and Pasifika young people are key to demonstrating to these communities that the Helpline service is relevant, culturally responsive and a fit for their needs. Māori models of health such as Te Whare Tapa Wha inform our work with targets groups of rangatahi Māori. Youthline has a Māori working group (Nga Whetu Poutama) to guide Youthline and inform our mahi. All staff and volunteers receive training in Te Tiriti O Waitangi. Staff are currently undertaking compulsory cultural competency training which will continue throughout 2026.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - All our services and facilities are accessible to people with disabilities. Our Helpline service can be accessed via free text, phone, webchat & email) making it highly accessible to those users with disabilities. Our new contact centre system is showing us how rangatahi are engaging and the use of webchat is gaining in popularity. Having a variety of channels available for rangatahi to make contact caters for those with hearing, speech and vision impairments and the neurodiverse, allowing us to provide a service to all those seeking support.

Healthy environment approach:

Promote smoke-free messages

Youthline Auckland supports the Auckland Council’s Smokefree Policy and its commitment to working proactively with others towards making Auckland smokefree by 2025. We have a smoke free policy in place. We also ensure that the young people we work with are aware of our support for making Auckland smokefree and how we can help them if necessary. In our State of the Generation Report 2023, Vaping was a key issue for rangatahi. and we can offer support, advice and referrals to young people who wish to give up smoking.

 

 

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

As a “with youth, for youth, by youth” organisation Youthline is committed to supporting all rangatahi with a focus on ages 12-24 years. 
 
Our Strategic Priority #3: Holding an equity focus on Pasifika, Rainbow, Asian, Migrant, Refugee, and Disabled young people and those who are Neurodivergent. The purpose of this strategic priority is to create an environment where Pasifika, Rainbow, Asian, Migrant, Refugee, and Disabled clients and those who are Neurodivergent receive equitable and effective services.  
 
Ensuring equity in access and outcomes in our approach looks like inclusive leadership, consultation and design with diverse voices, redesign of service, changes to structures and settings, removal of barriers to equity, using cultural models and ensuring accessibility.
 
Equitable approaches acknowledge that people have varying levels of advantage and need tailored methods and resources to achieve fair outcomes. 
 
Prior to COVID-19 NZ had one of the highest youth suicide rates in the developed world. Māori continue to have the highest suicide rate. 
 
Māori and Pasifika rangatahi disproportionately experience mental health issues and are less likely to seek professional help (Youth19) and Māori are significantly more likely to die by suicide than non-Māori (Māori 15.9% per 100,000 people – followed by European 10.1%, Pasifika 9.9%) – Coroners report 2022.
 
With a lens on equity, barriers to access are a significant issue for young people but particularly so for young. Research undertaken by Mauri Ora Associates in 2008 titled ‘Best health outcomes for Māori: Practice implications’ described the barriers as:
 
•           costs of care – for example ability to, and cost of, travel
•           communication – overly technical
•           structural – for example, distance to travel, waiting time, time restricted appointments
•           cultural issues – different kaupapa, stereotypes and assumptions, lack of respect and understanding of Māori values, discourage whānau support in consultation.
 
In addition, Youthline has created a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Framework and has engaged an external provider to facilitate this project. The DEI Framework will be a cornerstone of our efforts to foster an inclusive and supportive environment for all our clients and staff.  We are now in the process of implementing the DEI Framework.
 
Recognising and addressing inequities and upholding safety is very important to us. Youthline is proactive in breaking down barriers to accessing our support via the development of a volunteer workforce that is culturally and clinically competent and safe.

Financial information

$10000.00

Requesting grant for:

We are requesting $10,000 contribution to the Howick share of the annual budgeted costs to 1) provide clinical support for our Volunteer Counsellors who staff the Youthline Helpline in support of the young people of the area and their whānau, 2) provide clinical support for the Helpline Support Workers who support our Helpline volunteer counsellors and have responsibility for ensuring the safety of young people who contact us and 3) provide multi telecommunications channels for youth to reach out Youthline for support.

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

While Youthline has a robust and active fundraising plan to raise the funds needed to operate the Helpline which includes applying to local (Councils, mainly Auckland) and central (e.g. Lottery Board) government funding agencies and community, gaming and philanthropic trusts across New Zealand we are experiencing a significant reduction in funding from all sources due to the cost-of-living crisis and tightened economic conditions. 
 
Our Helpline is funded primarily by fundraising via grants, fundraising campaigns and donations with the support of a Te Whatu Ora contract for Clinical Staff only and overnight support from ASB. 
 
Youthline Auckland, like many other charitable organisations is experiencing the impact of our traditional funders having a reduced capacity to provide funding at previous levels and/or at a higher level. In the highly contestable sector of grant funding, we appreciate requests far outweigh the funding available for distribution. 
 
Sadly, we have recently been advised that Youthline has not escaped the impact of central government’s funding cuts to service providers supporting vulnerable children, youth and families. Due to notification of non-renewal of some contracts and other sector funding reductions we are now needing to consider making significant changes to how the Helpline is run. Securing funding for the Helpline operating costs such as Volunteer Counsellor Training and Telecommunications Channels will be fundamental to the sustainability of the Helpline. In addition, any inability to fund the Helpline will most likely result in the scaling back of the whole Helpline operation to skeleton staffing, the turning off of some communication channels together with the loss of the entire Helpline volunteer workforce across Aotearoa.
 
The Helpline service has never been fully funded by any government entity or organisation. Instead, it relies on a variety of funding sources, including government contracts, corporate sponsorships and grants or donations, to continue operating.  In the past year we have seen a 45% reduction in funding for the Helpline from our usual funders, particularly gaming trusts and grants and donations who we are reliant on to fund primary functions of the Helpline service. We continue to experience similar reductions this year and have been advised to expect the same for the coming year. Early this year, all government ministries were required to cut their budgets by 7.5% on top of the previous requirement to cut budgets by 2%. Youthline Auckland services are amongst those being impacted by the loss of some of these government funding streams.  In the past 7 months alone we have seen a loss of around $262,000 from corporate, community and government funding sources for FY25.
 
As the Helpline relies solely on contracts, grants and donations, the funding environment we are in is proving to be challenging and will continue to be so for the foreseeable future. 
 
At a time when young people need our Helpline service more than ever, securing funding from grants is vital for us to keep the Helpline fully operational at its current delivery level rather than reducing our Helpline service. 
 
We wish to acknowledge your previous support and commitment to the local young people and their families, who we are able to provide timely support to with your help. We would greatly appreciate further support towards the continuation of our Helpline service to support young people and their whānau.
 
Our request is for a small contribution towards the annual Helpline cost that relates to supporting youth in the Howick area. Every bit of funding we can secure is critical to support of our Helpline volunteer counsellors and staff ensures youth are able to reach Youthline for support using the communication mode that they can easily access and are most comfortable with.

Additional information to support the application:

The continuation of our Helpline service is critical and we know the community supports the delivery of this Youthline service because young people self-refer, and whanau, teachers, schools and community organisations refer their young people and whanau to us for support. 
 
Securing funding from grants is critical so Youthline can ensure that the Helpline remains fully operational and delivered by volunteer counsellors who have received comprehensive training and support.
 
We have attached additional supporting information containing Clinical Supervision and Telecommunications; and FY and Helpline & Engagement Statistics. We have also attached our State of the Generation 2023 Report.
