At Te Puna Rau Aroha, staff and people we support have been collecting used foil packaging and giving it a new purpose.

Thanks to Jeff and the volunteers at Te Whare Mahana, these materials are transformed into warm, waterproof blankets for people experiencing hardship and homelessness. they can also be used as picnic blankets, and to keep animals warm.

Today, Jeff brought in one of the finished blankets for our team to see. It was a powerful reminder of how small actions can come together to make a real difference in our community. 💛

Who is the Sensory Room suitable for?

How do I find Te Puna Rau Aroha?

Everyone has different needs, but we find that consistency is the best approach. You might start with once a week, but many people find 2-3 times a week works really well.
