A warm welcome was given to Sam and Victoria Barnes, Home Safety Networks, Waikato at the Survivor Sunday event on 12 July 2020. Sam gave a very impressive demonstration on the easily avoided hazards that can be found around the home which can lead to “fires” With extensive knowledge of fire safety, smoke alarm detectors and the invaluable fire blanket, the group was presented and armed with a wealth of advice to follow in their own homes.

Also giving opportunities to the burn community was the new owner of the Talent Tree Agency.  Tracey-Maree spoke about the business and the available offers that she has provided for the B.S.G.  To learn more, check the website under upcoming events.

Thank you to both these organisations who offer monthly donations to the Burn Support Group contributing to enhancing burn survivors’ journeys.  It was fabulous to see the many familiar faces and also meet new members, as our wonderful group numbers increased.. Special Mention to Aviva Raisin for supporting with the raffle donation and to Dixie Neil, a very happy winner of the raffle. Next Survivor Sunday is promoted for the 20 September 2020, and Burn Support Group look forward to seeing everyone there.  Please take into account that when you commit to this event catering costs are provided by the Burn Support Group confirmed numbers and attendance are greatly appreciated.
