From November 11, it will be illegal to sell vapes to under 18’s and advertising and sponsorship of vaping products will be banned altogether. Vaping will also be banned in legislated smoke-free areas such as:
- indoor workplaces
- cafes and pubs
- schools and early childhood centres
- public transport.
We think that everyone, especially parents need to be aware that vapes are now R18 and can’t be used in schools.
We are in need of a few volunteers who could spare some time on Saturday the 21st Nov from 9am -12pm and from 12pm -4pm to help with our Community BBQ 🌭at Bunnings on Constellation Dr.
If you can help please get in touch at admin@neighbourhood.org.nz

Hollie Beattie is a beautiful 7 year old Torbay girl who has been diagnosed with a rare form of cancer called Neuroblastoma. Despite receiving treatment for the last 2 years, the doctors have advised that they have exhausted treatment options in NZ and the last remaining option for a cure is a trial treatment that will need to be undertaken in Spain.
The costs associated of this are estimated to be at least of $400,000.

Send through a photo of a pet, and I'll turn him or her into a character you'd swoon for in a Disney movie.
I am offering a drawing with clean colored lines, a simple background, and simple shading (more than what is in my example), based off of a special photo.
What you will receive:
- a full-size high quality PNG file (digital!)
- you will get one round of review, in which you may ask for changes to get your perfect pet picture
- the photoshop document if requested--my signature cannot be removed
What you may do with this:
- print it on anything (NOT FOR PROFIT) like a canvas, poster, t-shirt, pillow, or mug for a wholesome gift this Christmas (I can point you to some places to do this. Name anything, and I can probably find a place to get it printed!)
Pricing by size (one pet):
A4 image (poster or decent to good quality for a t-shirt or anything smaller): $35
A3 image (poster or good to great quality for most products): $45
+ $20 per additional animal
Please message me or e-mail if you are interested!
If you want to consult with me for a special pose, expression, theme/props, or background, I am happy to negotiate. The above prices are only for direct interpretation of the photo with a simple color background (like the example listed).
I'm a vet student needing to make some money over the summer, so any commissions really help me out. I'm moving around a bit between now and the start of my next university year, and while I am employed full-time throughout December, applying for a job for half of November and all of January before I move away in February isn't incredibly realistic. So, this is me!
I also draw humans and offer other options if you are interested. I have art examples of varying quality on my Instagram: aloofs_travelingcircus
Thank you! :))
