Whether your goal was to thrive or survive 2025 it's certainly been a big year. We've done 228 shows in the past twelve months, covering plenty of remarkable and difficult stories. Despite the hard moments there's also been plenty to smile about. And since it's our last programme of the year we thought we'd listen back to some of the lighter moments we've had on Checkpoint in 2025.

Animal shelters gearing up for the busiest time of year
While a bunch of us are winding down for the festive season, others are gearing up for one of their busiest times of the year. Animal shelters are among them. The charity Helping You Help Animals or HUHA is spending its first official Christmas in its new home built on about 150 acres on Haywards Hill near Wellington. It's a full house with 600 animals to look after over the summer break. HUHA founder and chief executive Carolyn Press McKenzie spoke to Lisa Owen.
