Thanks to you all for supporting Downtown Community Ministry to help end homelessness in Wellington. A little incident yesterday highlighted for me how urgent and important it is to find adequate supported housing and meaningful occupation for all people. The Walk a Mile in My Shoes campaign might have ended but we can still support the mahi
Give it up for DCM supporting people who are homeless in Wellington.
Several great musical acts come together to help end homelessness – supporting the work of DCM with those who need it most. And you can help too, by buying tickets to see Laura Collins & the Back Porch Blues Band, one man musical sensation Seamus Johnson, the one and only Dr Blue with Vicky Weeds, esoteric folk songwriter Beans and toe tapping band Two Times.
It's the official wrap up to the Walk a Mile Challenge for 2023.
There will also be a charity art auction at the event, run by a top auctioneer from Dunbar Sloane.

Walking gets you out to see the fabulous red orange harakeke flowers, in my old red boots
There was a nice photo but alack it did not upload!
How about these little red fruiting bodies on a lichen, seen on my walk yesterday in Wellington's East Harbour park looking for orchids. There were lots of orchids too!
This weekend all the fun of the fair is at Waitangi Park, so I took in a preview last night. Screaming heard from the Screamer and the Ghost Train! Got to be fun right
Please support DCM by sponsoring my walking - every $ counts
I recently took a walk at night to look for interesting critters - here is a fabulous spider on a green mossy post taking a walk too. Much prettier than the selfies!
I zipped across town today to the fab Inverlochy House to try my hand at some wheel throwing pottery! Good stuff and a nice 2km stroll, a good start on ending homelessness fundraising!
