Our Playcentre whānau is taking part in the Starship Big Bake Off fundraiser, and we’d love your support 💛

Starship holds a special place in the hearts of many of our families. Several of our tamariki have spent time in Starship’s care over the years, including one of our own Playcentre children, Harrison, who needed life-saving heart surgery at just 5 days old.

We know firsthand the difference Starship makes for children and families facing incredibly difficult times, and we’re proud to be giving back through this fundraiser.

Every donation, big or small, helps Starship continue providing world-class care and support for children across Aotearoa.

Thank you for helping us support such an amazing cause ❤️
