Wake NZ is on the hunt for fresh sponsors to join

Our diary is beyond busy this season so we’re go

Our diary is beyond busy this season so we’re going to need everyone’s help to pull this off. Like last year, our “Helpers & Doers” group is there for anyone who wants to lend a hand occasionally. Also it would be a massive help if you put the word out to any generous businesses you know that might be keen to sponsor us. Every little bit helps.

Sponsorship details coming tomorrow.
