Daisy Dives for Dementia - Alzheimer's Awareness month
givealittle.co.nz...
Daisies Diving for Dementia is happening Saturday 24th September!
All funds raised go towards Alzheimer's Society Nelson/Tasman so we would LOVE for you to donate to support the people in Nelson living with this disease.
Rhys, Tracey and Harry are this years diving team and are going out of their comfort zone (yet again!) to raise awareness and funds for those who have Dementia, and who are living out of their comfort zone each and every day.
Sophie, on the other hand, will be watching from the ground this year as she is with child!
Watch this space for additional daisy divers, the more the merrier, so let us know if you'd like to join the team!

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.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
