Governance volunteers matter

Tania Jones from ClearThinking Coaching Ltd

Last week was National Volunteer Week and we spend time celebrating the impact that volunteers have in our country at all levels and in all places! Thank you to everyone who gives their time to others, you are to be treasured, and your gift to us all is very precious.

Governance volunteers matter...

Check out the blog I wrote for Volunteering New Zealand, about all the governance volunteers working behind the scenes in community organisations. We need to celebrate them and their work dedicated to keeping services running and communities and families intact.

A personal thank you to all the board members and governance volunteers that I have worked with across the country.

Contact me if you are part of a community organisation looking for some support for your governance team. I have mentoring and coaching spaces available now. Happy to chat to see how this support could work for you.

Upper Hutt Rates Increases.

Paul from Trentham

Please excuse if I am posting this where is shouldn't be. Admins, do remove this if its not appropriate.

I have not done anything like this before so please excuse if my wording isn't quite right.


As most of us are aware the Upper Hutt City Council have proposed to raise their Rates by near on 20% each year over the next 3 years.

If your UHCC Rates are around $2500 per year, after the 3 years of increases they will be approximately $4300 which equals an extra $35ish per week. This will not only hit homeowners, rentals, hirage of venues etc but will be impacting the community as the costs will be passed on with such large increases over a short period of time.

As I am outraged about this, I have created a petition on change.org to hopefully be able to show the council how many are not for these massive increases in a short period of time.

If you would like to support this petition please go to the link and add your voice.

Thanks in advance.

PROPHECIES OF 2024 SHOW PROMISE

Michael from Trentham

Sixteenth century prophet, Nostradamus predictions for 2024 are quite numerous and as interpreted by some are promising to come to fruition already.

Ailing Pope Francis will die or retire and be replaced as pope by an African cardinal or bishop.

Donald Trump will be elected President of USA and consequently turmoil will resume in the USA and the world.

Terrible weather and other disasters of nature will occur that will affect the world.

Conflict between nations will intensify and spill over.

King Charles will die or abdicate, Prince William will reject taking the mantle and it will be left to Prince Harry to be installed as King.

The Hurricanes will win the Super Rugby Pacifica championship and the All Blacks will have an unbeaten year under the coaching of Scot Robertson.
