On Monday night we were delighted to welcome Chris Martin, the manager of the SuperGrans Charitable Trust in the Wellington region, as our guest speaker. Chris has a background in both nursing and policing, prior to her becoming the general manager of SuperGrans nine years ago. Chris explained the vital work of SuperGrans, a charitable trust that provides practical, one-on-one mentoring to individuals and families. The organisation's mission is to empower people with essential life skills, such as budgeting, cooking, and household management, to help them become more resilient and self-sufficient. Chris emphasised that the service is based on the concept of "kaitiaki mentoring," which involves sharing generational knowledge in a supportive and non-judgmental way.
