Many in Tauranga are no strangers to struggling for accommodation, food and warmth this winter but thanks to a local photographer they will at least face the challenge with warm feet.
With the aim of collecting 1000 pairs of socks, Socks for Puddles was started by photographer Kaysi Fredericks.
For a donation of a pair of socks Ms Fredericks would do a mini photo shoot of people jumping in puddles at Yatton Park.
Ms Fredericks would make a post on her Socks for Puddles Facebook page that she would be heading to Yatton Park at a certain time and anyone was welcome to show up and have a quick photo session.
Photos taken would be posted to the Facebook page for people to tag, share and print themselves.
