Robyn rang from Ngai Tahu offering help for people in the area. A meeting needs to be arranged soon about this.
In the afternoon, Peter and Mike attended a meeting of Older Adults Network, and spoke about the work Addington Action was doing about the elderly and the situation we have found them in. Great questions, lots of helpful suggestions and some offers of practical help made which have been accepted. One woman offered to donate her late husbands tools to Addington Action which is wonderful and has been gratefully accepted.
