Etta Images fundraising project for Nurse Maude Hospice
Juliette Capaldi of Etta Images Limited is undertaking a new photography book called Love and Grandparents with funds raised supporting the Nurse Maude Hospice.
Photography sessions of Grandparents with their loved ones cost $65 per family, with the full fee being donated to Nurse Maude. The best image from each session will appear in the Love and Grandparents photography book.
Over $2,000 has been raised so far.
Participating families can purchase images from $169 within a few days of the session, and the finished hardback books will be available to the public in time for Christmas 2024, $10 per book will also be donated to Nurse Maude.
Nurse Maude is trialling Starlink satellite internet to support staff working in some of New Zealand’s most remote and rugged regions. With limited or no mobile coverage in areas such as Golden Bay, the service is being tested to improve real-time access to clinical systems for frontline staff delivering home and community care. Currently, a Case Manager based in Nelson is piloting the technology while working in low signal zones across the district. The trial includes exploring different setups - from mounting the Starlink dish to the roof racks of Nurse Maude vehicles, to positioning it on the parcel tray inside the car. A 12-volt adapter allows the unit to be powered through a standard vehicle cigarette lighter, meaning the connection can be deployed almost anywhere with a clear view of the sky.
