If any of you have family or friends who love baking and wouldn't mind helping with this venture on Waiheke we'd love to hear from you. We can use frozen scones etc if you live in Auckland and want to bake and freeze. A great way to meet others, raise awareness and funds for ME Respite which we turn into practical help for those who have no support.
