Hutt City Council

Do you love riding your bike, and want to share that love around your local community?
This free one day Ride Leader workshop will prepare you to coordinate small group cycle rides, to get our ‘would be’ riders out on our trails and roads. It will give parents, teachers and community members all the information they need to know to be an effective Ride Leader of adults, children and families on bikes.
After the workshop, organisers will help trainees with mentoring, and with a network supporting them to continue to be great leaders.
There are two opportunities for you to join a Ride Leader Programme workshop.

Workshop 1 – Friday 31 March, 9.30am – 3.30 pm; or
Workshop 2 – Saturday 1 April 9.30am – 3.30 pm.

To register, email ride@cyclingnewzealand.nz or phone Amy Taylor 027 501 4085.

These workshops come to you via a partnership between Hutt City Council, Wellington City Council, Greater Wellington’s Pedal Ready programme, Sport Wellington Inc and Cycling New Zealand.
Please register and you can help more people get out to enjoy the great cycle trails throughout our region.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Lost dogs

Rachael from Naenae

I'm so sick of seeing stray dogs no collars,under fed, just like the one I saw running past me while I was waiting for the bus, poor fella Before u get a dog, do your research owning a dog is a big responsibility
They depend on us
Is your house fenced
Does your landlord know u have a pet? Don't forget vet bills
And a comfortable place to sleep hopefully inside..
Don't forget good nutritious food,and daily walks,just remember check foot path on hot days by placing your hand or bare foot on it to see if too hot for your doggies paws, best early in the morning or late in afternoon when temperature is cooler..OK im not saying I'm the best owner my girl was left home alone while I was at work even though I took her for long walks in the morning..sensitive subject If u have to put your precious fur baby to rest because of horrible uncurable
Illness have the vet come to your home don't do it at a vet clinic that is the place stresses them out..
My girl had cancer
And the vet wanted to put to sleep in the clinic he made up every excuse, but I rang around and found wonderful vet in waterloo, they were so kind and we agreed on a day..
Cost $370..
My girl was not stressed at all she was chilled out on her couch watching TV, she was clueless
She thought vet were there to visit Lol it was quick my girl fell asleep went back to Our creator in heaven
So guys please do your research before u get a dog😁
