The award is sponsored by New World Howick. Recipients will receive a $50 New World gift card and will be featured in our newspaper and on our website.

The latest recipient is Margaret Bell.

She’s nominated by Andrea Martin, who writes: “Margaret is our cookathon co-ordinator at Bellyful East Auckland!

“She had recently set up all the equipment needed for our two new kitchens for Bellyful.

“Scouting around for the best deals for all the equipment ensuring that our funds are spent wisely.

“Every month Marg organises the food for both cookathons! No easy task!

“Grating cheese, peeling onions and ensuring everything is ready and waiting for our cookathon teams.
