Recycled Plastic Bags made into Bedrolls for Homeless
Morning everyone. Thank you so much for all the fantastic support in our need to get your recycled plastic bags so volunteers and members of Aranui Handiscope, can make the bedrolls for the homeless. The support has come in thick and fast and we are deeply appreciated. We need lots of recycled shopping bags so if you have any and would like to support us you can either drop them to St Ambrose Church 309 Breezes Rd ( Tues & Fri ) or 68 shortland St ( any day ). The bedrolls are soft, light to carry, hygenic and so warm are being knitted or crocheted. Thank you so much for your continued support, warm wishes Julie Williams - photos show one bedroll folded and laying out.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
