On 25th November, at Kiwibank Head Office in Wellington, Tim
Davies-Colley, Executive Project Manager of e-Learning Porirua, stepped up to
receive a Local Hero Medal in the Wellington Region from Mayor, Celia
Wade-Brown and Kiwibank’s Paul Brock. Tim has worked tirelessly on behalf of
the Board of e-Learning Porirua Trust to bring computers in homes and computer
skills training to the digitally disadvantaged households and areas of Porirua
such as Cannons Creek, Porirua East and Waitangarua. All Local Heroes
awarded a regional medal are currently being considered by the national
category judging panel for the Kiwibank Local Hero of the Year 2014. The
top ten semi-finalists will be announced later in December and we wish Tim all
the best.
