15th June is World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. It is estimated that approximately 10% of those aged 65+ experience some form of elder abuse (see our website for more information on prevalence etc.).

This year we are promoting connection as a way to prevent elder abuse! Connecting is something we can all do that would help to increase resilience against incidents of elder abuse in our communities and our whanau! Get together this June to celebrate WEAAD and connect over a cuppa.

We are also hosting a morning tea on Wednesday the 12th of June for you to pop in and get to know our social work team. This is a great opportunity to learn more about the issue of elder abuse faced by our community and how you can recognize when someone may be experiencing it. Drop in between 9:30am - 11:30am at Cambria Park Homestead, 250 Puhinui Road, Papatoetoe.

Soft Plastics Collection

Jennifer Kerr from Compost Collective

The soft plastic collection has returned to some Warehouse, Countdown and Huckleberry stores. The Warehouse and southern Countdown in Pukekohe take them and they get turned into fence posts by a Franklin business.

The Warehouse and southern Countdown in Pukekohe take them and they get turned into fence posts by a Franklin business. Check out the website for what they will take and where you can drop it off: www.recycling.kiwi.nz...
Please don't treat this as an excuse to use unnecessary soft plastic. You can reduce your use of soft plastic in many ways eg at the supermarket leave your fruit and veg loose in your trolley, get it weighed at the checkout and put it straight into your jute reusable shopping bags. You can reuse old plastic bags (or try paper bags) or get some reusable net bags to put your fruit and veg in. Avoid unnecessary plastic packaging by buying from bulk bins and putting it straight into your own reusable containers.
Our free compost workshops include information on how to reduce waste as well as how to compost so even if you're an experienced composter you're welcome to come along to learn more about waste reduction.
