When is recycling NOT recycling?

Ana Maea Chitara from Newlands

NZ BE AWARE! Esp. Wellington region, but I bet others will follow or are already there.

Hutt Valley (upper and lower) will no longer accept plastics 3-7.
Porirua and Wellington are ALREADY sending most of them to landfill, from our recycling bins. (ok, some type 5 goes to Malaysia but we don't really know what happens then)
Kapiti won't say what it's doing with theirs.
That leaves plastics 1 and 2, eg milk bottles and soft drink types.
Ice cream containers, "reusable" takeaway containers, shampoo/cleaning bottles, bottle lids, almost all of it is now landfill.
We need to be more aware about our waste, not feel good 'cause it can be chucked in a recycling bin! :-(

Share your New Zealand music memories...

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It's NZ Music Month and New Zealand really has some beautiful songs from artists that we call our own.

Whether it's April Sun in Cuba, Don't Forget your Roots, or How Bizarre or Bic Runga's 'Sway' - songs have a way of unlocking memories and evoking old feelings.

In honour of NZ Music Month, share a New Zealand song or artist that is special to you and explain why.

Know Your Baseline 📈

The Chiro from The Chiro - Johnsonville

Before we can start to improve your spinal function, and therefore your overall health, we first have to establish the current baseline functionality of your spine. 📊
Age, occupation, postural imbalances, historical traumas, and underlying conditions are just some of the factors that contribute to your baseline when you initially seek care. 🤕👩‍🦳👩‍🔬

Identifying this through a thorough health history, comprehensive spinal assessment, and radiographic imaging gives us the ability to curate a roadmap of care that is specifically designed to improve your baseline.
