CEO Message June 2026
How lovely to have an extended King’s Birthday weekend! I hope you set some time aside to relax, in favour of ticking off a few more jobs from your to-do list.
Later this month we officially welcome winter – time for cozy fires, digging out the hot water bottles and cheering on the tamariki with their winter sports from frosty sidelines. I’ve already dusted off my warm winter coat as we’ve had some chilly early morning starts here in the Wairarapa.
This month, we release Caregiving 101 – a brand-new online training opportunity designed to support you with practical tools, guidance and confidence on your caregiving journey. We’d love to hear what you think!
If you have a moment, I’d really encourage you to take part in our annual Membership Survey. It means a lot to hear from you, as it helps us understand what is important for you when it comes to improving our support, training, events and updates we share. As always, there’s also a wee incentive for completing it!
I hope you and your whānau are keeping well and warm and that you’re able to find small moments of joy through the colder days.
Noho ora mai
(Stay well, look after yourself, goodbye)
Chief Executive, Caring Families Aotearoa
