Shining the Spotlight
26 May 2026
What does your role involve?
As Enliven Community Services Coordinator, I support and coordinate services for older people, including managing the HomeShare programme and supporting the Falls Prevention and Day programmes in Rangiora, Canterbury.
One of my favourite expressions is:
In a world where you can be anything, be kind.
What is your favourite pastime?
I have two young kids, so my time is usually spent doing some sort of kid-related activity! However, when able, I do enjoy catching up with friends and trying the new restaurants/cafes that are popping up in Christchurch, listening to music, cooking and reading.
Help finish this sentence….
If I could have one dessert for the rest of my life...
Sticky date pudding, with all the trimmings - cream, custard and ice cream! Followed closely by crème brulee or a good homemade apple crumble.
Life is sweeter when…
Everyone is happy and healthy, and I arrive on time for things.
My motto is…
Life is short. Take the trip. Buy the shoes. Eat the cake!!
