Have you ever lived, or do you live in the Glenbervie, Kiripaka or Whareora areas? If so, you undoubtedly have some memories worth sharing.
These areas are steeped in history, and we are losing the personal memories of a different time as people move away or pass on.
The young people of today have very little idea of how life was even twenty years ago. Let’s preserve those memories now, so future generations can be as fascinated as we are about our grand and great grandparents’ time.
Please contact Barbara Herman at barb@venture-gear.com or phone 09 4375347.

If you've noticed a missed call from a number you don't recognise (particularly international numbers), it is important that you don't call this number back and consider reporting this as a potential scam.

Phone companies are advising customers to reject these calls and if you have friends or family living overseas, it is recommended to have their numbers added as contacts in your mobile phone, so you can identify when they are calling you.

- Check out these tips from Netsafe for how to help protect yourself from scams.
- Read about the different types of scams you could be caught out by including wangiri (one ring) and 'technical support' scams
- Find out how to report a phone scam here.

If you’re not sure if something is legitimate or genuine you can contact Netsafe free advice seven days a week on 0508 NETSAFE or visit netsafe.org.nz
