A PRICELESS GIFT
Hello everyone
The restriction on giving blood in response to the outbreak of ‘Mad Cow’ Disease in the UK (restricting anybody who lived in the UK between 1980 and 1996 from giving blood) was lifted 29 February 2024.
So, for the first time in over 30 years I donated blood last Tuesday. I am again able to give a priceless gift that may very well save a life – and all for just 1 hour of my time.
So, for whatever reason you haven’t given and would like to, I encourage you to find out more about how you can donate.
There is a lot of info on the NZ Blood Website.
Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?

Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.

Do you think changes need made to the current process for building consent? Share your thoughts below.
