It’s encouraging to see the specialist lending sector being recognised.

Movember may be over, but our office is now officially moustache central! From handlebar to stache-tastic, we’ve had a blast growing more than just facial hair this month. Huge thanks to everyone who contributed, supported, or simply tolerated the mo-growing madness. Together, we’ve helped support an incredible cause.

Our Finance team recently had the opportunity to support West Auckland Hospice, an organisation that provides palliative care to individuals facing life-limiting illnesses. Hospices offer more than just medical care – they take a holistic approach, addressing the physical, emotional, social, cultural, and spiritual needs of those they serve.

During our visit, we were amazed by the wide range of services offered, from music therapy and massage to counselling, all aimed at improving the quality of life for patients and their families. We were also surprised to learn that individuals as young as 18 can access hospice care if they have a life-limiting illness with a prognosis of 12 months or less.

A key takeaway was understanding the vital role fundraising plays. The government covers only 60% of hospice care costs; the remaining 40% is funded through donations. Christmas Remembrance Trees in malls and large shops will be one of their major fundraisers this year, and we encourage everyone to contribute through monetary donations or volunteering their time.

As a team, we spent the day creating beaded dragonflies - symbols of the West Auckland hospice - tidying and helping organise donated goods. It was a rewarding experience, and we were happy to contribute to such a worthwhile cause.

Let’s all support the incredible work being done by hospices this festive season.

Recently, some of our amazing Avanti team members volunteered their time to provide warm meals for families whose children are receiving care at Starship Hospital.

A big well done to the Avanti team, and an even bigger thank you to Ronald McDonald House for the incredible work you do in keeping families safe, healthy, and close during challenging times.
