   For contributing to greater understanding of New Zealand's new migrant communities. Daphne Bell's New to New Zealand: A Guide to Ethnic Groups in New Zealand is already in its third edition and second reprint since it was first published on behalf of Hamilton's New Settlers Focus Group and the Ethnic New Zealand Trust in 1997. It aims to give staff of voluntary and statutory agencies a readily accessible resource that will help them to understand their clients better. Daphne has worked closely with Hamilton's ethnic communities and has been a board member of the Hamilton Multicultural Services Trust. She is also a committee member and home tutor for the Waikato ESOL home tutor scheme. As the Donations and Community Liaison Coordinator for Trust Waikato, she has provided funding advice to many community and volunteer organisations, and published a Grant Seeker's Guide. She is retiring from the Trust in July, and will be working on a further edition of New to New Zealand.
