Bellyful Selwyn

Bellyful provides up to three nights of meals to whānau with babies or children under 12 who are facing challenges such as illness, bereavement, stress, isolation, pregnancy, miscarriage, or baby loss – regardless of financial situation. We help families without a support network. Our meals are generously cooked and delivered by volunteers, who will do their best to be in touch within five working days. Click here for other services if you need urgent help.

Our volunteers are taking a break to spend time with their families. Please check back from 1 February to make a referral. Please note: Bellyful Christchurch does not deliver in our area, so please don’t send referrals to them.

Lolli Spackman

Branch Coordinator

I’ve been volunteering for Bellyful Selwyn since 2015.

I’ve always wanted to give back to the community,  and with my love of food and family Bellyful was a great option. I’m a trained chef and a catering Instructor. I have two grown up girls that help Bellyful Selwyn, and a grandmother to three grandbabies, who call me Lolli and my husband Shane is Pops. Lolli & Pops. We also have a black Labrador called Loki.

I organised the Cookathons for Bellyful Selwyn and decided to step up and become Branch Coordinator in March 2024.

With the help of our other Bellyful Selwyn volunteers, we are getting our name out in Selwyn, by fundraising, cooking and delivering meals to families of our community.
