I am wondering if anyone can help with the following items.
- A Bed
- Draws

WINZ has helped with clothes and linen, and a few plates and cups, however she could still do with a lot more of this type of this stuff,

If you can help please get in touch with me via message on here or text 0275055811

If you need any more information do get in touch as well

The so called builders who did the work on the house didi not do all that was on the scope, eg 10 piles to be packed and jacked spouting to be fixed. They signed off and were paid for their work or lack of it. Anyone out there with the same issues I would be interested to hear from you as I am not sure what steps to take next. My understanding is that  your house was to be returned to the status it was before the earthquakes which mine is certainly not. Yes I am insured.
