Community Networking Meeting

Lindsay Upton from Manukau East Council of Social Services (MECOSS)

Manukau East Council of Social Services (MECOSS), provide opportunities for the public and like-minded community organisations to network together and build connections. This helps to increase awareness of the social services available in the Howick, Pakuranga, Botany, Ormiston and Flat Bush areas.
Social services are services provided by the government for the benefit of the community such as health and medical care, upskilling and capacity building and safety and welfare.
Many organisations already have representatives attend our free monthly Community Networking Meeting, but we’re aware that there may be many more who don't know what our organisation does, or maybe that we even exist.
Attending a MECOSS Community Networking Meeting benefits people, because they become better informed of the services available to them. They can then refer family, friends, neighbours and others to an organisation that is able to provide the level of support that may enhance their life.
MECOSS’ next Community Networking Meeting will be held at 11:30am on Friday, 25 May 2018 at Glen House, Pakuranga Heights Community Hall, 6 Glenside Ave, Pakuranga Heights, Auckland.
If you’d like to know more about this meeting or would like to get involved, please email admin@mecoss.org.nz

💡 A Little Brain Buzz for You⚡

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I have two faces, but show you only one.
I once had guests, but now have none.
I’m rarely bloody and seldom blue.
I’m often promised and sometimes new

(Trev from Tamatea kindly provided this head-scratcher ... thanks, Trev!)

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
