Daylight saving comes to an end on Sunday morning, so don’t forget to change your clocks back one hour. Even though the days are growing shorter and the nights longer, there is still time to get out and about to meet with friends and acquaintances. Today's eNewsletter lists a number of pop-up hubs for seniors throughout the Wellington Region with morning/afternoon tea or coffee or light lunch, where you can have a cuppa and a bit of a chin wag with old and new friends.

So we’ve just announced our 5th fee cut in 5 years. From 1 April, we’re lowering our total fund charge to 0.30% across our Conservative, Balanced and Growth KiwiSaver Funds and our diversified investment funds. Says Sam Stubbs, Simplicity MD: “Being a KiwiSaver manager involves huge economies of scale. Fee cuts in our industry should be frequent, but they aren’t.”
Simplicity believes in passing on the benefits of scale to our members – and we’re on track for further fee cuts in the future. Check out more details on our blog now!

Sip on one cup of warm water mixed with 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and a tablespoon of honey. Both apple cider vinegar and honey have antibacterial properties that may help soothe a sore throat. *Water should always be used to dilute the acidity of apple cider vinegar.
Many consider apple cider vinegar and honey to be a tasty combination, as the sweetness of honey helps mellow vinegar’s puckery taste.
