Our homes can be our greatest investment and protecting our homes against climate change has become more important than ever.

Our changing climate poses risks to our natural and built environments. Swiss Re in a global analysis of insurance risk said to “expect climate risks to raise global property premiums by 33-41% between 2020 and 2040”. The potential increase was deemed a direct consequence of our changing climate.

Our Climate Insights property report provides easily understood information on change to risks for your current or a future property. The report includes robust and actionable information for residential property owners, tenants and investors to enhance their property’s climate resilience.

Join the rest of the motu on October 28 by taking part in our national earthquake drill and tsunami hīkoi, ShakeOut. Signing up only takes 2 minutes and when you do, you’ll be entered to win a personal emergency grab bag or civil defence wheelie bin kit from NZ Civil Defence.
ShakeOut takes place around the world to remind people of the right action to take during an earthquake:

DROP - down on your hands and knees. This protects you from falling but lets you move if you need to.

COVER - your head and neck (or entire body if possible) under a sturdy table or desk (if it is within a few steps of you). If there is no shelter nearby, cover your head and neck with your arms and hands.

HOLD - on to your shelter (or your position to protect your head and neck) until the shaking stops. If the shaking shifts your shelter around, move with it.

Head to www.shakeout.govt.nz... to sign up today and get involved!

You cannot get anything more natural than raw honeycomb.
This is honey straight from the hive completely natural as the bees made it.
What is Honeycomb?
Worker honeybees craft the internal structure of their hives by using their legs and mouths to mould the soft beeswax pieces into hexagonal cells. These ‘honeycomb’ cells are used to store nectar and pollen, which the bees then convert to honey.
How do you eat a raw honeycomb? There’s no wrong way!
Layer a comb of honey on a baguette
Add flavour to toast, scones or pancakes
Cut into bite-sized pieces and include it on a platter of deli meats and cheeses. Pairs wonderfully with a Blue cheese.
Come and see us at Hive World 16 Wall Place Porirua.
