Join the Kindness Community Care Crew: we are all in need of neighbourly support

The Kindness Community Care Crew is a local initiative where we rally a group of Meet-up members and head out to lend a helping hand to neighbours who need a little support.

We Believe in Neighbours Helping Neighbours!

NOMINATIONS: Do you know someone who could benefit from a our crew? Please nominate them! Or, are you struggling? Could you use our assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. No task is too small if it helps someone in our community feel more supported and connected.

### Get Involved!

Do you have a few hours to spare and a desire to support locals in need?
Could You or Someone You Know Use a Helping Hand?
Email Us: Nicolehollmann133@gmail.com or Direct Message us on Meetup.

How It Works: We organise the "Care Crew Meetups" where volunteers come together to help a local individual with a specific need. Each meetup is a friendly, supportive event, often with a thank-you like a BBQ or afternoon tea provided by the person you're helping!

Why Join the Crew?

• Make a Tangible Difference: See the direct impact of your kindness.
• Connect with Your Community: Meet new people and build stronger local ties.
• Share Skills & Learn New Ones: Lend your expertise or simply offer an extra pair of hands.
• It's Flexible: Contribute when you can, on projects that resonate with you.

Following is one of our recent nominations:
Dear RAK, I'd like to nominate myself for support from the Kindness Community Care Crew, a wonderful initiative that aligns with my values.
I am a late-diagnosed autistic woman with ADHD. The characteristics of both conditions conflict, causing anxiety and significantly impacting my quality of life. I have become low functioning, with autistic burnout every afternoon and currently in major depression, struggling to see a way out.
One of the biggest impacts on my mental health right now is the state of my environment, specifically boxes that need to be organised and decluttered. I lack the executive functioning skills to even begin tackling it on my own. I have found "body doubling" – having someone present while I work – is incredibly effective for individuals like me. Having a supportive, non-judgmental presence would provide the accountability I need to make progress and start transforming my home into a calming space.
I can put on a morning tea party, for your kindness crew. I would be SO grateful 🙏.
Thank you for considering my request and for all the wonderful work your group does for the community.
Warmest regards Jonni ✨
