Jamie Allen shares the journey of the Taranaki Retreat, from the initial building challenges right through to today and the Waimanako Hub, right in the middle of town. We touch on the wrap-around support that is the basis of the kaupapa of the Retreat, as well as first approaches for help and the complex issues around those sleeping rough in the CBD. Finally we discuss funding and, in particular, the next fund-raising event for the Retreat that needs your support - the Annual Duck Race.
