Dear Friend

August has been a busy month for Lifeline.  In this issue, we have the results from the 2008 Kidsline Poster Competition.  We also welcome several new staff members.  Kail Watson, Living Work's new Project Manager, introduces himself.

We update you on new research about the size and contribution of New Zealand's voluntary sector.  Joyce Dawkins's 25 years with Lifeline is a wonderful example of this contribution and in this issue, she reflects on her years as a Lifeliner.


Happy Reading !




Bryan Wilshire
Chief Executive
