The public is being encouraged to hold a Time to Remember to help ensure hospice care remains free for all New Zealanders.

You can have fun gathering your friends, hosting a get-together be it formal or very informal to remember a loved one or just to celebrate life.

Each guest will be advised by you, the host , that they will be making a donation to Hospice. We call this event "Time to Remember". Celebrity Chef Jo Seagar will again lead the way by supplying some of her truly delightful recipes for you to consider which include:

• Filling the tins
• Small courses & brunch
• The main event
• Sumptuous desserts and puddings

Your host pack contains everything you need to plan your event including a donation form, donation envelope and invitation cards for your guests. Friends of Hospice Lady Elizabeth Home and Hospital Takanini run this event for Hospice South Auckland as an annual event and is the highlight of their social calendar. This year they have raised an amazing $3,500 for which we are most grateful.

Phone or email me for more information on how you can host a “Time to Remember”.
