In the evening of Tuesday 18th February, Johnsonville Rotary is launching its “Toot 4 Tucker” collection In Newlands to collect dry and canned food to assist Newlands Foodbank in supporting local families and individuals in need.
You will see us coming as we will be wearing Hi Viz vests and you’ll certainly hear us coming thanks to the fantastic support from the Newlands Fire Station and their Fire Engine!
The Fire Truck will lead the way with flashing lights and the siren to alert families on the route that collectors are coming on foot or in tooting vehicles.
Beginning at 6pm at Newlands Baptist Church on Horokiwi Road West we will be following a circular route in Newlands (see map below). Please donate any dry and canned food you can spare to the team with the fire engine and support the Newlands Food Bank.
