Give the Gift of Counselling

For a percentage of the population their circumstances mean they can find ways through their grief without professional support. However, for many others this is not the case and they may feel caught in a complicated, confusing, overwhelming, exhausting space.

We have set an annual fundraising goal to be raised through funding strategies outside of our grants, trusts, and contracts.

Your help through our annual "Give the Gift of Counselling" Christmas appeal will contribute to our aim of increasing the number of individuals and families/whānau supported within our community.
