In February the Te Awamutu Courier featured Terrena Griffiths, national co-ordinator of Chip Packet Project New Zealand which uses chip packets to make blankets to help vulnerable people to stay warm while keeping plastic out of landfills.
The collection point for packets in Te Awamutu is the local CAB and
on Monday Griffiths is coming to Te Awamutu to speak to the CAB volunteers.
She has agreed to stick around after the session for anyone in the community to come and learn about what they do to be part of the project and how to turn foil chip and biscuit packets into thermal blankets.
It will be a drop-in session from 11.30am to 1pm.
