Do you have a morning (or avo) available where you could talk to new people, read a book or do your handicraft and at the same time help man our little shop in Kaitaia.
A shift is 2.5 hours. Any help is gratefully appreciated whether you could do odd relieving or a permanent shift.
The job isn't onerous, in fact most people use the time to do their crafts, research or other activities as generally we are not overly busy. Some travel in from outlying areas to shop then come do a shift before going home again. We pay in time credits.
If you know a younger person who needs work experience or a helping hand back into the workforce (CV might be a little bare?), this is a good
opportunity to create a new start.
Skills needed: be willing to listen, can do basic counting, be available to do a 2.5 hour shift either morning or afternoon, have some interest in environmental issues is helpful. May need to do a Police check.
Please Email if you are interested
Thanks - The Team at the Eco Centre

We have 86 people registered for our 'Running a business' panel on Monday Sept 2nd at the Senior Centre.
The event starts at 7pm.
I need some help at 6.30pm with setting out the chairs then welcoming attendees - ticking their names off the attendee list.
If someone is happy to stay or come toward the end, I also need help with getting jugs of hot water filled, cups, tea and coffee ready and out, for people to help themselves. Then to wash cups at the end.
An extra floater to help with anything needed during the event might also be good as I will be on stage interviewing the panelists.
Would you like to help with this? I could do with a few helpers. Thanks in advance!
Kate (email me at kate@connectingmc.org or phone and leave a message if I don't answer 03 308 1237, ext 218)
