🌿 Tip of the Month: Why Wills Need Health Checks Too!

Manager from Stainton Chellew

Just like our health, your Will deserves regular check-ups to stay in shape. Life changes—new relationships, kids, property, or cultural commitments—can mean your Will no longer reflects your wishes.

Keeping your Will up to date:
✅ Mitigates the risks of family disputes
✅ Protects blended families
✅ Respects cultural values (like Māori & Pasifika traditions)
✅ Ensures your assets go where you intend

Key takeaway:
A "healthy" Will is a current Will. We recommend reviewing yours every 3-5 years or after any major life event. If you don’t have a Will yet and would like to discuss your options, we’re here to help.

Get in touch with us to ensure everything is in order and give you peace of mind.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
