Project Lyttelton organised a vegetarian Indian cooking class before<br />
lockdown began. Led by Madhu Rees, people learned how to prepare,<br />
cook and serve traditional Indian food. Project Lyttelton was extremely<br />
impressed with Rees’ passion for Indian cooking and the effort she put<br />
into the evening.<br />
DISTRIBUTION: Boxes from the Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
community were soon filled with donated food and<br />
essential items from the Cholmondeley Children’s Centre<br />
to be donated to families in need. <br />
Food parcels for those in need<br />
• By Samantha Mythen<br />
ESSENTIAL FOOD items have<br />
been delivered to those in need<br />
with the help of the Diamond<br />
<strong>Harbour</strong> community and the<br />
Cholmondeley Children’s<br />
Centre.<br />
One hundred and twentyeight<br />
boxes of packaged food<br />
items and fresh fruit and<br />
vegetables were packed and<br />
delivered last Tuesday to<br />
Christchurch families.<br />
Melanie Jeffs Gresty, who<br />
works at the children’s centre,<br />
asked her fellow Diamond<br />
<strong>Harbour</strong> residents for help as<br />
the organisation had all these<br />
essential supplies, but no way to<br />
package them up.<br />
263 x 180<br />
Community members donated<br />
boxes and paper bags,<br />
enabling the centre to create<br />
food packages.<br />
“As an organisation, we have<br />
not done food boxes before.<br />
We normally provide respite<br />
for children while they are at<br />
Cholmondeley,” centre manager<br />
Robyn Wallace.<br />
“However, we were given the<br />
opportunity to access this food<br />
while in lockdown and so we<br />
sprung into action to ensure we<br />
could provide for families who<br />
needed extra support during<br />
this time.”<br />
Wallace said the help they<br />
received from the Diamond<br />
<strong>Harbour</strong> community was “wonderful.”<br />
“It’s wonderful to see the<br />
generosity of people,” she said.<br />
