After a long hiatus, Permablitz BOP is coming back! Permablitz is such a special gift to this community, and it is exciting that some renewed energy will help the magic continue.

Introducing Amy Board, who is very keen to get these special reciprocal community events happening again. Amy is the co-ordinator for the Western Bay of Plenty Kai Resilience Network, implementing Mana Kai Mana Ora, a kai sovereignty plan, which was written by Poutiri Trust in Te Puke. Amy also helps run the Tauranga Seed Library with her sister Sarah. 

Also introducing Paige Galbraith, member of Tauranga Herb Society, keen gardener and keen to get involved in community projects. 

Tess Partridge who has been involved for many years will still be in the background helping these two new fabulous women along with this journey.

First Call: if you have been to 1, 2, 3 or more Permablitz events as a volunteer and are keen to have something happen at your place, please get in touch! You can email us on permablitzbop@gmail.com or send us a message on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/permablitzbop or our NEW Instagram page (thanks Paige!) https://www.instagram.com/permablitzbop/ and follow us along on those pages too.

Secondly: we will be having a celebration in July to relaunch Permablitz at one of our past permablitz hosts, so please keep your eyes peeled for that as we would love to see new and old faces!

If you know of anyone else who would be interested; friends or family, then please forward this on and get them to subscribe to our email list on the website or add us on Facebook (Permablitz Bay Of Plenty) as we will be popping info up on there too.
