Charities working with vulnerable New Zealanders say they're having to adapt how they deliver their services during the lockdown. Foodbanks have stopped accepting in-person deliveries and are instead asking people to donate money online, just as demand surges. With all retail and charity shops shut it's difficult under the lockdown to get warm bedding, clothing or heaters. Joining Kathryn to talk about the lockdown situation is Gavin Findlay, CEO of food rescue service Kiwi Harvest, Christchurch City Missioner Matthew Mark and Conrad La Pointe, who's the general manager of Habitat for Humanity Auckland.
