Christmas is coming, and St Vincent de Paul needs your help

From Afternoons, 1:53 pm on 18 October 2019

It's coming. Sooner than you expect.

Mariah Carey will be back on the radio. Retail stores will be hiring extra staff. Elderly men will grow out their beards and start moonlighting at the local mall.

Because Christmas is just around the corner. And that's good news for lots of us! It means presents, family, holidays and happy times ... but not everybody is so fortunate.

That's why the St Vincent de Paul society in Wellington is holding its annual Christmas appeal!

Marketing manager Millie Lambess joins us to explain more.
