Update from PHARMAC:

Gemma Elizabeth from Hutt Valley District Health Board

From 1 August, you will be able to get your prescription all-at-once again for some medicines.

Despite this, some medicines will remain on monthly dispensing if they were monthly before 27 March 2020, or if there are supply issues.

If you have remaining repeats ready for collection after 1 August, you do not need a new prescription and you will only need to pay the $5 dispensing fee once.

Check out pharmac.govt.nz/dispensing for more information on restrictions and the medicines that are still on monthly dispensing.

Please remember that the world is responding to COVID-19 and this affects supply chains and manufacturing overseas. Please do not try to ‘stockpile’ your regular medicines. Stockpiling medicines makes it more difficult for pharmacists, doctors and PHARMAC to avoid shortages for everyone.

Stamps wanted

Marty from Johnsonville

I run a Stamp club at Tawa School to encourage children to collect stamps and learn about countries, history and more. Unfortunately new stamps aren't often seen these days as it's all electronic! If you have any stamps or old collections sitting around, let me know and I'll come and get them.
