This is your chance to celebrate your hood by sharing stories, photos or video. We really want to see and hear about the people in your neighbourhood. Portraits or videos of our neighbourhood champions, or the people that to you personify your community or ‘hood’. This year we’re doing it a little differently. To help focus (excuse the photography pun) we’ve chosen three themes.
1 – I Heart the History of My Hood
Everywhere we live has history, and stories. Do you know your hood’s history? Or maybe you know someone who has lived in the community for what seems like a million years, and know the place like that back of their hand. Was your hood the birth place of the women’s vote, or maybe site of the biggest lamington ever made way back in 53′ ….(Yes I know, random, but honestly we’re interesting in anything and everything)… By the way – this is also an awesome way to get our older ‘story tellers’ involved.
2 – I Heart Diversity in my Hood
New Zealand really has become a melting pot and that brings with it the rainbow of diversity of all kinds. Maybe you have the ‘united nations’ living on one street, maybe your neighbourhood pot luck dinners are better and more interesting than an international food fair could every dream of! We want to see and hear about it.
3 – I Heart My Healthy Hood
With our clean green image, amazing fresh foods, picture perfect outdoor environment, we know there are neighbourhoods out there that personify ‘health’. Is your neighbourhood or neighbour one of them? It could be through a neighbourhood walking group, or a ‘from garden to plate thanks to the shared neighbourhood community garden’ kind of thing. It might be a neighbourhood that has committed to getting the kids off screens and outside, or maybe its a whole street of cross fit power vegans ….. probably not … but you never know. What ever it is, we want to see and hear about it.
To enter go to our website and ‘share your story’
So get snapping and chatting. We have more information on I Heart My Hood available on facebook and on our website.

Does anyone know where I could pick up a free standing or wall mountable flat back spice rack that will fit at least 30 spice bottles/jars? They seem to be as rare as hens teeth these days.

They seem to be as rare as hens teeth these days.
We have 4 racks of various shapes and sizes but with limited bench and storage space need a better, more space saving, solution.
We have the bottles/jars, so just need the rack.

The Heretaunga Women's Centre is offering this new group service and would greatly appreciate your help.
Come and join us for the first of our meetups created to provide an uplifting, supportive and nurturing group. A time for YOU to kick back, enjoy the company of new friends and enjoy feeling relaxed and cared for. Help us by sharing what you would like to learn or enjoy. Help us make this group exactly what you want.
This first meetup is completely free and includes complimentary morning tea.
Over the coming months, the wonderful team at Heretaunga Women's Centre would like to share with you a range of holistic approaches to wellbeing including relaxation techniques, creating foods for instant energy, aromatherapy, hand massage and many other simple but effective ways to support yourself.
This event has been created to provide an understanding, non-judgemental, caring and confidential environment in which carers can make friends share their concerns, acknowledgements, challenges and frustrations.
As this is a daytime meeting so it's for women only at this venue. We're busy securing other venues so all you lovely men caring for loved ones can join the fun soon.

We will be posting fairly frequently we hope - in fact to get us going does anybody need a push mower? A really solid wide cut mower, the only reason we are selling is the catcher is broken and there are no replacements available (a handy person may be able to mend it).
Hi we were in the garden and my daughter got stung, on the sole of her foot, we assumed it was a bee then saw this in the grass. Any ideas
