Duffy Books in Homes programme
As part of our ongoing commitment to empowering the young people of our region to reach their full potential, we support the Duffy Books in Homes programme.
Throughout the programme, primary school children select books to take home and keep. The intention is to break the cycle of children who can’t read and who later become adults who can’t communicate well.

Trust Waikato Community Pool
We are an official sponsor for the Trust Waikato Community Pool, based in Taumarunui. Through a yearly contribution to the pool, we help make it possible for young people and their families to learn the life-saving skill of swimming while having fun in the water all year long.
