#saveonemorelife hackathon help needed!

Sonya from Manly

Hi everyone, I am participating in a Hackathon where a bunch of diverse people have come together this weekend and I‘d love your help. Our team, SafeSense is working to save one more life on the road. More than 1000 people died or seriously injured in 2017 due to loss of control or head on crash on the road on a bend.
I‘d love to hear from you and what you think might help preventing other drivers crashing in similar situations.
Please leave a message here and/or PM me your thoughts today if possible as our team are presenting to judges tomorrow. Please feel free to share with anyone else who might have something to share! Thanks all :)
Question - Are you a driver? If so, where do you normally drive to?
Question - Any particular spot you are nervous on those journeys? Any particular dangerous event you can think of?
Question - What do you think needs to happen to prevent further lives loss on a bend?

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
