We already have our first one in Royal Oak, Auckland and 20 more to come over the next few months. Those 20 received have funding from the Government’s Electric Vehicle Contestable Fund, meaning we have been able to roll these charging stations out to areas that haven’t seen them before.

It is an amazing website set up by a group of Canterbury people that wanted to provide a site for people to donate products and for the monies generated to go to charities. 

It is like Trade me (whereby individual people list products they would like to sell and the charity they would like to support), people go in and bid  the money raised goes to charity that is listed at that time on the website.   Money minus a $1 fee (to cover running costs) all goes to the charity.

So you can participate by doing the following:-

1.  Have a clear out and donate goods.
2.  Select a deserving charity to receive the funds raised.
3.  Login and become a buyer and get a fantastic bargin whilst helping a
     deserving charity.
4.  Discuss with your family and friends to that they to can enjoy the   
      gift of giving, whilst decluttering OR enjoy the gift of giving by    
      purchasing an item whilst getting a bargin and stopping good items
      from going into the tip.

Win, Win Win situation for all.

The Charity of Cat Rescue Christchurch is being added to the list of charities tonight so would love for you to join us and raise some funds so we can move towards our goal of renting premises for our organisation to be based from.

Situated well within the reach of beneficial amenities, the location within the named “suburb to watch”, affords endless options for both daily necessities and weekend entertainment. Meticulously crafted and tastefully prepared for your immediate comfort, this home affords you to live your life separate from home maintenance worries. Multiple decking additions, installation of double glazing and full insulation, plumbing and electrical upgrades, and with a lengthy list of completed and unique features throughout kitchen, living, beds and bath, the attractiveness is easily defined. Retreat outdoors to private and completed alfresco living, or travel to the rear of the section where you might stamp your own personality. It’s not hard to imagine, and easier still to seize for yourself.

Hi everyone

As you all know I am the artist on the corner of Mackenzie and Hopkins in gallery@109. Last year, and part of this I had a big show of 50 works titled 'Somme/Silk Road' on exhibition at the QEII National Army Museum in Waiouru. I then created a further suite of works using the same inspiration (the silk cards made during WW1 in France and Belgium) which I titled 'We'll be home by Christmas'. I turned two of those cards into printed Christmas cards (see images below) which I sold last Christmas and am again selling packs of 12 (6 of each, although I can make up packs of only one image should you like) of these from the studio and also from Aum Dairy on Hopkins Street.

So for $15 (GST incl) a pack you get 12 unique Christmas cards and envelopes. All in time for your Christmas mail out.

Created here in Woolston/Roimata, please support your community and your local artist.

You can email me through here or txt me on 027 2748158 to reserve some for later pick up.

I am open most weekends from 2-4pm and have a new hang of works leading up to Christmas, so call in and have a look at what's being created locally. I also have a 10% down and nine months to pay system in place.


Cheers
