On Friday 26 July, we volunteered to collect money for Dementia Auckland outside Countdown Takapuna for two hours. Dementia Auckland is an organisation committed to giving dementia support service to those living with dementia. They believe, that with their support they can inspire people affected by dementia to make the most of their lives. During the two hours, we collected approximately $100. We received lots of positive feedback from Countdown customers and enjoyed interacting with them. Overall it was a great experience and we are sure to do it again.
