In an article from The New Zealand Herald Miriama said the following: “We all think New Zealand is this idyllic little place that doesn’t have this [starving children], but we need to be reminded that it exists… We also need to be reminded that we can help.”  Michael Wesley Smith, who we know and love as the clever whiz-kid Jack in The Tribe, is currently inhabiting the UK… On May 16th 2011 Mike co-presented the International Families Charitable Gala 2011 organised by London Family Television’s (LFTV), who MWS is doing presenting/hosting work for.

Aww I just saw this pic and had to post it up. It’s of Lee Donoghue, who was Spike in The Tribe – currently Hunter McKay in Shortland Street, with his cat Sinbad. I’m sure though he has renamed the cat Cyclops (see his Tweet here).
I can’t decide who’s cuter, Cyclops or Lee! Cyclops was adopted by Lee Donoghue from the Auckland SPCA, who posted the pic on their Facebook. You can follow the lovely Lee D. on Twitter by clicking here.

Miriama said the following to the New Zealand Herald: “… when I heard about the earthquake, and I was watching the news, it really shocked me. And then when the aftershocks happened, and there was a lot of disturbing footage of families being driven out of their homes and things, I just thought, ‘I need to offer my help in some way’.” Definitely a heart of gold, great work Miriama :) Read the full article by Jarrod Booker below or on the New Zealand Herald online.
