Foodbank Update

Sharon Wills from New Plymouth Community Food Bank

Kia ora,

the foodbank is now open and operating as usual after the holiday period -

Monday, Wednesday and Friday (closed public holidays)
9am - 2pm for donations
12.30 - 2pm for clients

We have been receiving donations of surplus fruit, vegetables and eggs; thank you to the generous donors!

Last year the foodbank helped feed just under 5400 adults and children; please give us a call if you have any surplus produce or food as we have many needy families and individuals asking for help in 2019.

Morning Aches Are Optional - Let’s Start the Year Sleeping Better

Beds4U - New Plymouth

Hey neighbours,

Waking up with sore shoulders and stiff mornings? Here’s the plot twist - it might actually be your mattress (and pillow) letting you down.

It’s the perfect time to upgrade. New Year, New Bed! Our Boxing Day Sale is still on, so why not treat yourself to a mattress that actually supports you and helps you wake up refreshed? Side sleeper? Back sleeper? Tossing and turning? We’ve got tips and solutions for every kind of snoozer.

Don’t settle for mornings that hurt, your bed should work with you, not against you. Curious about how your mattress could be affecting your shoulders? Check out our blog: beds4u.co.nz...
