Is your household experiencing financial hardship? Did your partner or a 
family member lose their job, Do you wish to help them navigate all the WINZ terminology and processes, or perhaps access the foodbanks in your neighbourhood?
We have a team of staff at Unitec with prior experience of both of these systems, willing to give a helping hand to their colleagues in need. This team is offering to:
- Be the first point of contact, hear your story and help access the legibility criteria for both WINZ and Foodbanks
- Come along for support to your schedulesd WINZ or foodbank meetings. These things can be nerve-wracking and it’s good to have someone that can help you with all the writing in small letters
You can email connect@unitec.ac.nz and we will arrange a 30min confidential call for you as soon as possible.
Do you like the sound of this initiative and would like to join the team? Email mzidov@unitec.ac.nz with your expression of interest.
