Last night at Parliament the Minister of Health Dr David Clark presented the Martinborough Healthy Community Project with the Outstanding Health Provider category at the Ministry of Health Volunteer Awards.

In 2017 Martinborough Health Centre developed the Martinborough Healthy Community Project to enhance the health of the local community.
Feedback from that community has been very positive, with both physical and social benefits for a growing number of participants.

This project has five complementary components, each run by volunteers:

· a weekly walking group to encourage physical activity and companionship

· a community larder for sharing excess fruit and vegetables

· a community garden on donated land

· a six-week Healthy Lifestyle Programme for people with long term conditions

· a regular Health Bulletin which provides medical and lifestyle information that’s easily understood.PHOTO: From left, Sue Mcleary, Pam Shackleton (Martinborough Medical Centre), Les Roberts, Debbie Yates, Kiwa Mitchell at Parliament’s Great Hall.

The schools staff, students and families have put a lot of time and effort into fundraising to provide these Chromebooks. They are an important part of the students everyday learning, it is extremely unfair that someone felt they had the right to help themselves leaving the students without a vital educational tool. Please keep eyes and ears open as they may well try to offload them in our local community.

Westpac NZ polled 1000 people about their opinion on parents assisting their children into their first homes.

It found widespread acceptance of the idea: More than half the parents said they would loan money interest-free and only 38 per cent would expect it to be paid back.
