National Volunteer Week 2018 - Quote

Sarah Macdonald from Volunteering New Zealand

Who doesn’t love a good quote?! 😍

With National Volunteer Week coming up next month (17-23 June) we’ve been busy collecting quotes to reflect our NVW slogan.

“Volunteers, The Heart of our Community – By many, the work will be completed, Mā tini, mā mano, ka rapa te whai.”

Poll: Car Sharing!?

Rhiannon from Nelson South

There are a few car sharing apps and I was wondering who uses them or how everyone goes about car travel? I think car sharing is a really good idea and saves money, fuel and carbon emissions.

Fuel costs

Tim from Nelson South

Shocked by the increase in fuel prices?. You should have lived in Franz Josef where the cost of a litre went up to $2.30, three years ago. My wife worked part time in the fuel station.

You should have lived in Franz Josef where the cost of a litre went up to $2.30, three years ago. My wife worked part time in the fuel station. Several part time staff were so embarrassed that they started telling tourists to go elsewhere if they could. There was also an additional $1 charge for using a credit card. Prices regularly fluctuated but it was generally accepted that the owner, who lived in Auckland, needed to replace his helicopter.

Home safety checklist: Fall-proofing your home when over 65...

With cooler weather embracing the country, you may find you’re not getting out and about as much. So now is the ideal time to make sure your home is as fall-proof as possible.

The home safety checklist will give you practical tips on how to make your home safe. It covers how to avoid slips and falls in the home’s most used areas. For example, paths can get icy in winter, applying salt or sand to your path can help avoid any icy slips.

Having a fall can be upsetting. Those over 65 have a one in three chance of having a fall, while those over 80 it’s one in two.

The good news is falls are preventable. A new movement called Live Stronger for Longer is helping to reduce the risk of falls by providing practical information and free resources. We want to help you stay on your feet, and living the life you want to live.

Take the home safety checklist with your friends and family and join the movement today.

Proudly brought to you by ACC, HQ&SC, MOH and your local community health providers.
