Bayleys Real Estate Lower South Island Group is excited to announce the launch of the Bayleys Boot Drive, in partnership with the Highlanders rugby team. This community initiative running across Otago and Southland aims to support young rugby players and their families across the lower South Island by providing them with much-needed rugby boots for the upcoming season.

Now in its 10th year, the annual Charity Golf Day is a valued fixture on the local fundraising calendar, bringing together businesses, clients and supporters for a day of connection, friendly competition and giving back. The event continues to support organisations and initiatives making a meaningful difference across the region.

The Highlanders High Performance Fundraiser brought people together in support of elite rugby development, raising more than $12,000 while celebrating the strong relationship between the Highlanders and the Southern community and inspiring the next generation through local school engagement.

Proudly hosted by Chris Campbell and Republic Hospitality, the annual Bluff Oyster Bottomless Lunch brought together locals, clients and businesses, raising more than $22,000 for St John Queenstown and the Lakes District Air Rescue Trust. The event showcased the power of community support for two organisations providing vital services across the region.

Proudly hosted by Sarah McBride and Sarena Glass at The Hills, the Pink Ribbon Long Lunch brought the local community together for an afternoon of connection, generosity and fundraising. With the support of attendees, sponsors and supporters, the event raised more than $36,000 for Breast Cancer Foundation NZ, helping fund vital research, education and support services.
