Each year many former refugees settle into their new lives in the Hutt Valley. You are invited to a New Zealand Red Cross information session at 12pm on Wednesday 10 September at the Upper Hutt Library on Fergusson Drive to find out how you can make a difference welcoming these new residents into our community. Your unique local knowledge opens doors and builds connections.
