Hi to everyone in sunny Nelson!

I hope 2024 has started off nicely for you all and you are settling in to the rhythm of things for the year that lies ahead.

I would like to introduce Florence as our newest CCI Support staff member.  Florence is based in Nelson and will be coordinating the Nelson in-person social group and providing support where available. 

Here is a little more about Florence:

Hi everyone,

I am from Norwich, England and have been in New Zealand for about 4 years. My partner is a Kiwi from Wellington and we have gone on many road trips around New Zealand. I really enjoy working with
people and I work part time running a day programme for elderly with dementia. I joined CCIS as my dad was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia some years ago.  He found lots of comfort in going to support groups, so I wanted to be involved in a charity that supports
people with chronic illnesses. I love cats and I do yoga and gardening to unwind in the evening.

Florence can be contacted by emailing [email protected]

Remember we also have our monthly online social group for members who live in the Nelson / Marlborough region.  Please let me know if you would like more details about these groups.

I wish you all a lovely month of March, and I look forward to connecting with you soon.

Regards,

Tania
