monster garage sale/ Market Day being planned
hi there everyone. As we know, so many people struggle with depression and anxiety nowadays but it can be difficult finding support. Evolve Peer Support Trust is a charity based group trying to do something practical.
Monster Garage Sale/Market day
We need your help!!!
Evolve is a charity that helps your community in a very positive way by running groups that directly support those who live with Depression and /or Anxiety. It is based on the peer support principle that those who “walk the walk” and “talk the talk” can offer a greater depth of understanding and specific support. We currently run a group in Te Awamutu, several groups in Hamilton and a specialised group for those who also live with Autism. The need is obviously there for these groups and we plan to expand throughout the Waikato and other areas. But we need funds to achieve this.
All money raised at this event goes directly to the running of these support groups. Come along and support this worthwhile cause and grab yourself some bargains!!!
Date: Saturday 21st April 7.30am to 2pm
Place: St Aidan’s Church Hall, Corner of Thames Street and Heaphy Tce, Claudelands, Hamilton

Vandalism is costing ratepayers - what can be done to better protect our public spaces?
Vandals have repeatedly damaged public amenities across the Waikato District, leaving ratepayers to pick up the bill. So far in 2025, the cost has climbed to nearly $123,000, reports the Waikato Times.
The council is urging residents to report vandalism as soon as possible.
If you witness vandalism in progress, please contact the police immediately.
We want to know: Do you have ideas on how we can better protect our public spaces?
