Girlz Night Out at Lembas Cafe

Gail Lewis, owner of Lembas Cafe, has been one of our many amazing supporters of the Kapiti Women’s Centre’s fundraising. On Tuesday evening, 15th November, Gail hosted a Girlz Night Out at Lembas Cafe.  It was a night of fashion and glamour for all the women who attended, with clothing, shoe, jewellery and accessory designers showing off their wares.  We were greeted with a glass of bubbles and enjoyed delicious fingerfood throughout the evening.  All the proceeds of this fabulous evening were donated to our building fund.

 

 

 

White Ribbon Day

 

Many hands make light work!  On Wednesday 16th November a group of dedicated and hardworking collective members took over the kitchen at the Kapiti Community Centre to bake and ice over 1,500 White Ribbon biscuits for the Voices Against Violence group.  These biscuits will be handed out to the bikers and supporters who are gathering outside the Mediterranean Warehouse on Monday 21st November. Volunteers will be handing out biscuits to the train and bus commuters early on Friday morning, the 25th November.  What a worthy cause to be involved in! Click here for photos of the bake-off.

 

Womens Opinion Files

For a variety of reasons, women are often unsure who to access for health assistance or which tradespeople to contract. To help other women, KWC encourages women to record both their positive and negative experiences of local practitioners and tradespeople. These opinions are not the opinions of KWC.
