GPSOS Independent Alarms

Bridget from Waitaki District

Hi my neighbours in the Waitaki District. My name Bridget Percy and I am going to be working for a company called GPSOS. They have just launched an independent alarm device last year which give the older, at risk people with disabilities their independence back. With a monitoring device in which they can go anywhere and not just in the home so if something happens, they'll never be alone when they go out. The GP1000 device has a built in two-way talk communication so they can talk through it and us them. Has fall detection which triggers an automatic response if you drop it or fall. It's 24/7 365 days a year. Why I'm telling you this? Is who do you all know that has some sort of permanent disability and are at risk that we could make sure they stay that way. I would love to hear from anyone that thinks it would be a good idea to buy them or someone they love a pendant. You can wear it round your neck, on a belt or on your wrist. Please reply and let me know. Thank you Bridget if interested!

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.

While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
