Amanda Cosseboom is a lovely lady who gives her time and energy to improving people’s wellbeing and creating a sense of belonging for members of her community. She is the founder of the Snells Beach Community Market and works alongside Friends of the Mahurangi East Library. She organises the stalls at the market and makes them affordable for local talent who can then sell their boutique arts and crafts.
All stall fees go directly back into the community helping support local charities, events and causes. Recently the money raised from fees has been donated to the Keas, Stroke Foundation NZ, Snells Beach Kindergarten, Warkworth Men’s Shed and Mahurangi East Volunteer Fire Brigade. More of the community should know about Amanda and her market – everyone involved has a laugh, shares their creativeness and gets to know each other.
Amanda is giving back one market day at a time. Chocolate Brown To nominate someone you know who deserves a chocolate thank you, email.
