Show Notes

Women’s Refuge is in the spotlight following claims of unauthorised spending from a “wellbeing fund”. 

Three women at Whare Manaaki Porirua Women’s Refuge have been suspended while a forensic accountant goes over expenditure. 

Charities Law expert Sue Barker tells Heather du Plessis-Allan charities need public support and reputational controversies could damage Women’s Refuge’s ability to do what the public support them to do.
