PARKS

Recently, members of our team at PARKS had the privilege of taking part in Cook for Cancer Care at the Canterbury Cancer Centre in Christchurch.

The centre provides accommodation for cancer patients and their families who have travelled to Christchurch for treatment. It also offers transport to and from the hospital, along with a range of other support services, helping ease the pressure on people at an already difficult time.

Our team cooked for approximately 70 people at the centre and on the menu was a delicious pasta bolognese, garlic bread and green salad 🍝🥗

For many guests, treatment means spending weeks away from home, often from right across the South Island. Sharing a home-cooked meal with others who understand what they're going through is a small gesture that can mean a great deal.

It was a humbling experience, and a powerful reminder of the difference the Cancer Society makes in our community. Thank you to the Cancer Society team for welcoming us, and to everyone at PARKS who supported the day.

This recovery took place near Ōhau Point, Kaikōura, after a truck struck a rockslide and ended up in an incredibly dangerous position on the edge of a steep bank.

Recoveries like this are a reminder that heavy towing has never been just about big gear. It takes experience, planning, and the ability to stay calm when the job is anything but simple.

For Parks, tough recoveries have been part of the story for a long time.

🐝 You never know what you’ll find under the hood at Parks… 🐝

A wrecked vehicle turned into home for a HUGE swarm (about 10,000 bees) and the team did the right thing straight away: called in Jeff from the Christchurch Bee Club to safely rescue and rehome them.

Watch the “golden parade” as they follow the queen into the box…👑✨

When things get weird… Parks stays calm. 😅

Oil older than your playlist, dash lights singing their mating call… and yes, it ran out of gas with a flat battery mid-shoot. 😆

Luckily, the PARKS team rolled in with fuel + a boost like the wildlife rescue unit for neglected cars.
