Bev’s Brush with Kindness

Cannons Creek resident Bev Yates was the most recent recipient of A Brush with Kindness.  Bev and her late husband Harry have been a part of the Cannons Creek community for many years; they have fostered more than 400 children and Bev still collects toys and clothing for children in need and passes them to the local Baptist church for distribution.  Serious health issues have made it very difficult for her to keep on top of home maintenance and on 17 May Habitat volunteer Stephen Holmes led a team of 20 keen to give Bev a hand, including members of the Freedom Church and the Rimutaka Prison Faith Unit.  Bev expressed her sincere gratitude and said she felt a great deal of relief after several years worrying about the state of her home.
