Gazebo Set Up – Suicide Awareness March, Huntly
This role is about quietly supporting the Suicide Awareness March in Huntly by helping to set up the Healing Gazebo. You’ll help distribute free giveaway packages and keep our kuia company while we join the march—a small, meaningful way to support the community on a day that holds a lot of emotion.

We’re looking for 2–3 volunteers who are kind, calm, and friendly. If you want to bring friends or whānau along to help, that would be wonderful—the more support, the better the feeling of care.

While the march is underway, you’ll look after the gazebo and resources, making sure everything runs smoothly. Some experience putting up a gazebo is helpful but not required. We’ll guide you on the day—you won’t be alone.

  • Location: Huntly (exact location will be confirmed when you sign up)
  • Date: Sunday 22nd June
  • Time: 4hrs (Exact timing to be announced once confirmation has been received from the organizers.)
  • What to bring/wear: Dress warmly, wear closed-toe shoes, and bring a calm, caring attitude. High Viz will be provided on the day.
Requirements:
  • Willing to wear our high-visibility vest
  • Bring your smile, kindness, and respect for the occasion
  • No previous experience needed — full guidance provided
  • Comfortable helping set up and look after the gazebo and resources
  • Able to stand for periods and manage light tasks like handing out giveaways
  • Able to support and keep company with kuia during the march
  • Willing to work calmly and compassionately in a sensitive environment
  • Ready to be part of a small team and support others throughout the event
Time commitment:
