I am sure everyone is looking forward to taking a well-earned break over the
Christmas holiday period. I certainly know we all are at ANCAD. Hopefully, we
all get sufficient time out to recharge our batteries so that we can come back
to work in January refreshed to begin another year.
Nevertheless, it has been a good year for ANCAD. Acknowledgment of our
work is always nice. Thanks to Takapuna Rotary for awarding us the Arthur
Coombes Cup for services to the community. And Repair Café Auckland won
an award from the Auckland Community Zero Waste Awards: Power of the
People - For demonstrating commitment, effort and leadership in the
community.
Thank you to the dozens of people who completed our end of year survey
which was sent out via Survey Monkey. Your response is very important to us
and will enable us to inform our planning process for next year and our
project delivery roll out.
It has been a tough year for many community organisations and the feedback
we are getting is that capacity is stretched and sustainable resourcing a great
more difficult to find. We have noticed a drop off in numbers at various
public meetings. We know that people are just so stretched with service
delivery they cannot easily attend meetings. We are not exempt in this. It
has been a really busy year for all ANCAD staff.

In November we had Alan Johnson as a key note speaker at our last regional
network meeting. Alan Johnson is a social policy analyst for The Salvation
Army's Social Policy & Parliamentary Unit. He is author of The Salvation
Army's 2017 State of the Nation Report. This report provides excellent
information on what is really happening at a grass roots level. It provides an
alternative view on issues impacting in the sector. ANCAD has always
appreciated the work of the Policy Unit and we see Alan as a ‘national
treasure’.
Sue Barker and Dave Henderson presented to invited community
organisations in Parnell this month on the Charities Act which is up for
review. They are both members of the Core Reference Group for the
Review. They have designed and are managing a survey for independent
community consultation research, feeding in to their contributions to the
review of the Charities Act 2005. This is the first time since 2005 that the
Charities Act has been reviewed and it is vital that charities and the
community sector’s voices are heard. So please let us know if you have
missed the link to the survey and we can send you one.
I hope you all experience a wonderful holiday break. We wish you and your
staff, family and friends a happy and safe Christmas and New Year.
ANCAD is officially closed from 20 December to 7 January 2019.
We look forward to seeing you all again in the New Year, Happy 2019!

wonderful catering on the day.

with it. Carol Scholes was the presenter. Great feedback from those who
attended.
I’ve been developing our programme for 2019 and we’ve got a few new
topics and a new presenter. Therese Lanigan Behrent will be presenting a

Communities’; the audience for this workshop are managers and Boards of
NFPs as well as funders, local government, and other stakeholders. Margy
Jean Malcolm from Dunedin will be the facilitator for this.
