Community
We are very much part of the community in which we live. We believe it's important to be part of those organisations in which we have a personal interest or, perhaps, those that have supported us in the past.
These organisations have a very special place with us:
Halberg Disability Sport Foundation: Adrienne has been a trustee for the last 13 years. This year the Halberg Foundation celebrates 50 years since its establishment by Sir Murray Halberg in 1963.
Te Papa: Adrienne is a member of the executive committee of the Friends of Te Papa.
Royal NZ Foundation of the Blind: More of a personal thing for us. We volunteer for the street collections for the Red Puppy Appeal each year in April, and also Braille Week in October. Adrienne's family also volunteers at the RNZFB Peer Support Camp for visually impaired young people in Taupo each January.
