Over this past year, we’ve continued to support vulnerable people at home and overseas, while making progress to achieve our 10-year strategic plan.

When our International Delegate Lesley Jacobson arrived in Fiji to train first aid instructors from across the Pacific, she knew she was there to teach, but she didn’t expect how much she would learn too.

On the second anniversary of Cyclone Gabrielle, we’re proud to share how the generosity of New Zealanders has made a lasting impact in Hastings District. The support provided through the New Zealand Disaster Fund has not only helped communities recover but has helped them prepare for the next disaster.

From earthquakes, floods, fires, and snowstorms Lavina Anderson has seen a lot in her 30 years as a disaster welfare and support volunteer. To mark her incredible service, she recently received Honorary Life Membership, awarded to people who’ve given exceptional service and dedication to Red Cross.

New Zealand Red Cross is always here and part of our communities. Over the 2023/24 year, we have continued to support vulnerable communities at home and overseas, while making measured progress to ensure our 10-year strategic plan – Strategy 2030 – is achieved.
