Summer safety checklist: Fall-proofing your home

The Team from ACC New Zealand

With warmer weather heading our way, gardening is a great way to stay fit and get regular doses of Vitamin D to help strengthen our bones.

The Home Safety checklist will give you practical tips on how to avoid falls, sprains and strains while pulling those stubborn weeds. For example, when you’re gardening avoid heavy lifting and use long-handled tools so you’re not bending over for long periods. Steady yourself when bending and standing, no pesky weed is worth falling for!

A new movement called Live Stronger for Longer is helping to reduce the risk of falls by providing practical information and free resources. We want to help you stay on your feet, and living the life you want to live.

Take the home safety checklist with your friends and family and join the movement today.

Proudly brought to you by ACC, HQ&SC, MOH and your local community health providers.

Gas fitter

Craig from Red Beach

Can anyone recommend a gas fitter for a small job.
I know it’s hard to pin down a tradie this time of year but would be stoked to get someone to hook my LPG gas Bourke stove and fridge to my caravan. Thanks for any help in advance.

Name and Shame

Kerri from Silverdale

ETN812 While making room for new spectators to see the dolphins this rude and inconsiderate man blew his horn, shouted at and threw an energy drink can at another car...Why bother looking at the dolphins if you clearly don't care about the environment or their safety anyway???
