    Ngā mihi nui to everyone who contributed to our fundraising. We paid for the appointment this morning having topped up with a bit of our own money. All of your aroha made this accessible. It’s especially important because Simon has a new job tutoring neurodiverse kids in STEM subjects which is the best suited and most meaningful job he’s ever had. We feel hopeful the medication will help him to do his best at this job as well as recover and do better in his personal life.

    There is of course still the possibility that we will need to pay for follow up appointments. This fundraiser was supposed to run until the end of February so for now, I’ll leave that as is. Any additional donations will help us continue to pay for Simon’s mental health related costs.

    In my previous update, I typed the wrong date for our market. We’re going to be at Naenae village market this Saturday, the 13th of December! It’s going to be a fun one! We’ll be selling delicious homemade caramel popcorn and fruit punch,

    We’ll also have an old skool guess how many lollies jar, and we’ll have Simon’s aunty doing Face painting!

    If you’re in the hutt, why not pop down to Naenae village market, Hillary court - the pedestrian area near the library and playground. We’ll be there 9am-1pm(ish)

    Thank you to everyone who donated so far! Your little gifts are starting to add up and have given me hope that we can do this!

    We are planning a fundraising stall at Naenae village market on 13th February. I’m putting together some raffle prizes. Does anyone have items lying around that could be donated? Unused toys, unwanted presents from last Christmas, etc (: or any services that could be donated? I’m considering making an evening of babysitting a prize.
