Every Thursday morning there is a variety of food available at Omokoroa Community Church which is kindly donated by ‘Good Neighbour’ for those in need in our community. There is usually a supply of bread, fruit, vegetables, salad greens and sometimes eggs.
If you know of a family or neighbour who can benefit from this, please spread the word or come down and help yourselves!

Looking for musicians
Hi, Do you play a musical instrument, maybe flute or recorder or violin or drum.
There are some people locally trying to form a morris dance group and they will need a band.
Here is a link to the ‘dots’ – have a look.

Volunteer for food deliveries
“In This Together Omokoroa Peninsular” are a group of volunteers that have come together to help deliver pharmaceuticals and groceries to members of the community that fall into the following category:
- 70+ and would rather not going to the supermarket
- People recently returning from overseas and in quarantine
- People with underlying health issues.
- If you are feeling isolated or scared and need someone to talk to we can arrange that too.
If you would like to volunteer, please down load the form, fill it in and return it to office@theocc.org.nz
If you have already said that you would like to volunteer, you will be contacted by the team.
Finally, if you know of someone near you that is 70+ and does not use the internet, we would like to be able to contact them. If you are able to provide us with their Name: address and contact number, we will ensure they are not forgotten about.
Online Shopping FreshChoice Omokoroa
We are pleased to advise we are in the process of setting up Online shopping in Omokoroa!
This process normally takes 2-3 months to set up – we have set ourselves a goal of 1 week!
We will be offering both “click and collect” and home deliveries (no phone in orders).
We should have this up and running by the end of next week (week ending 29th March).
Firstly we will open this opportunity to the following groups of people (high risk):
- Those 70 years and over living on the Omokoroa peninsular.
- These with low or no immunity living on the Omokoroa peninsular.
- Those in self isolation on the Omokoroa peninsular.
Once we have this under control we will open this up to the rest of Omokoroa.
We have had many phone calls and emails already about this service.
Please help us out by NOT calling or emailing us at this point with questions. Our team need all the time they can get to put stock onto the shelves for you during this challenging time.
We will advise everything you need to know over the coming days.
We have employed two online shoppers on our team, but are calling on the community for help with delivering these to the locals given the expected volumes initially.
If you are interested in helping with this please contact Rick Peers for details rick@omokoroa.net
Kind Regards,
Steve Ling
