With the current restrictions we aren’t able to print or distribute at the moment, but we are working hard on a fantastic May issue for you and it will be on sale as soon as the restrictions ease! I am hearing from so many readers right now about how their gardens have never been more important to them than they are now, so I want to ensure you get your NZ Gardener, packed with beautiful pictures, expert advice, inspiration and information as quickly as possible, so you can enjoy your own garden even more. Meanwhile, when you do your next shop, we’d love it if you could pick up a copy of the April issue which is on sale now (you can add a copy to your online shop too).

If you are in a position to subscribe, or share your own love of plants and gardening by buying a subscription as a gift for someone else, then we’d be incredibly grateful: mags4gifts.co.nz....

It is still very important whaanau to get your flu vaccination in preparation for winter, and this can be done in a safe way.
If you are pregnant, over 65 years old, or an adult or child under four who has an on-going health issue, you can already get your FREE flu shot now!
But you must call your doctor’s clinic first and follow their instructions; they will take all the necessary steps to keep you safe. Call them now!
The flu vaccine does not protect against Covid-19; however it will help prevent Influenza, which is a serious illness.

Nothing beats the smell of a freshly toasted hot cross bun, but as Easter this year will be spent in coronavirus lockdown and your favourite bakery or cafe is closed, we've put together a list of some of the best spices buns you can find or if you're feeling adventurous why not make them.
My personal favourites are from Daily Bread. What's your favourite thing about Easter?
Hullo neighbors,
While it’s great to see many of us taking this time to exercise and walk our dogs, it’s really disheartening to see that owners aren’t picking up after their dogs have dirtied the paths and pavements etc.
Please, be considerate of others who use this common public space… View moreHullo neighbors,

Within two weeks, we have delivered over 5,000 face shields, but we are still hearing the calls of many. As the government and DHB’s publicly assure us that all necessary equipment is readily accessible, the demand for our face shields continues to grow daily, with requests for 30,000 shields.
If you would like to help us help them, sign up to volunteer at shieldsup.org.nz, or make a donation to ensure we can continue to produce and distribute our shields to protect our frontline heroes.

We all find ourselves in this rather unique and challenging situation. “A state of isolation and restricted access instituted as the result of a security matter” Who would have ever guessed that a virus would result in a Lockdown.
This time spent in our “Bubbles” has certainly given us time to ponder and reflect on what is truly important to us. We will all arrive at our own conclusions, but one thing that is for sure is the World as we knew it, would have changed…. more than likely for the better!
This time will pass. It won’t be like this forever! Life will return to normality again, and when it does, Denture Creations will once again be bringing you the service and quality that we are known for and that you, our most valued patients have come to expect. We are so grateful for all our loyal clients and the ongoing trust and support you have shown us over these past 8 years.
As we approach Easter, lets love more and be kind to one another.
Wishing you all a happy Easter and look forward to seeing you when our doors open again.
Stay safe. Stay Blessed.
Kindest wishes from the entire Team at Denture Creations (Your Smile Designers)
