Franklin Hospice Garden Ramble

Ric from Pokeno

Here's a shout out for the Barfoot & Thompson Franklin Hospice Garden Ramble. It's on the weekend 12-13 November and this year has 11 Magnificent Gardens and a Christmas market. Details at www.franklinhospice.org.nz.... Tickets at the Hospice shop, Simply Giving; online; or some garden centres. See the website.
This only occurs every two years and all proceeds go to Hospice.
(Oh, and if you'd like to help out as a volunteer - either at the Ramble, generally for Hospice or both -please contact Franklin Hospice and leave contact details. Someone will be in touch)

Vandalism is costing ratepayers - what can be done to better protect our public spaces?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
