Its nearly time........
Yes its nearly time for the Community Christmas Day lunch in Havelock North! 225 guests, 6 van loads of pickups, 70 kids presents... 35 volunteers and we're ready to go.
Its been an incredible journey to bring the largest ever Community lunch to the district but what an amazing team we have that's brought it all together. Huge support from the community as always and its a go!
On a separate note this year we are able to deliver a fresh Christmas meal to people in the Hastings district that are housebound or unable to get out for one reason or another. If you know of anyone that could benefit from this please message me on Neighbourly or email: info@ageconcernhb.org.nz and we can arrange that.
Merry Christmas to everyone.
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
