The Raine & Horne Big Splash is an annual fundraising event supporting the ongoing operations of Rachel's House Trust, proudly sponsored by Raine & Horne.
Held in a fun, community-focused atmosphere at the Rangiora RSA Club, the event brings together local businesses, community groups, and individuals to help raise vital funds for the Trust. Participants compete for the title of “Splash for Cash” Champion by raising the most sponsorship, dressing up to match the event theme, and bravely taking the plunge into a pool of freezing cold water—all in the name of charity.
It’s also a fantastic Friday night out for the wider community, offering a lively and entertaining environment where businesses, families, and friends can come together, connect, and support a meaningful local cause.
Rachel’s House Trust is a registered charity offering a full wrap-around service in response to the needs of parents, expectant whānau, and caregivers with young pēpi under 5 in our local community. We connect with families to provide ongoing, practical support.Our clients include māmā, papa, and their pēpi—regardless of their background. Families may be referred through agencies, medical centres, midwives, or whānau—or they can self-refer.
Referrals are only required for social-work support and food parcels; otherwise, anyone in the community is welcome to visit our Baby Hub and access free baby items, clothing, nursery furniture, and maternity equipment—no referral needed.
Our dedicated staff and volunteers walk alongside families for as long as needed, offering:
- A qualified Social Worker and a Senior Support Worker
- Weekly Play Group and Mums & Bubs Group
- Advocacy, guidance, counselling, mentoring, workshops, and one-on-one support
- Practical help accessing financial assistance, housing, education, food parcels and other services
Rachel’s House provides a visible, approachable, and empowering environment where vulnerable families are supported to live with confident hope and build a positive future for their children… for as long as it takes.
