Photo Restoration Services - LEVEL3 UPDATE
WE ARE OPEN
Following the move from Level 4 down to Level 3. I just wanted to update everyone on how they can still get their photos restored. We are now able to accept none contact personal drop offs and pick ups of Photos. Masks and gloves will be worn during personal consultations and safe distances will be kept. Therefore we can keep everyone safe during this difficult crisis. You can find out more about the Level 3 conditions at the governments Covid-19 website.
PERSONAL DROP OFFS
To arrange a personal drop off please contact me either by email or call me on 022 6373533. Our usual business hours are as follows;
Mon-Fri 10am - 5.30pm
Sat By Appointment
Sun Closed
Please bring along all of the photos that you would like us to have a look at. We are able to offer courier deliveries of all your completed restorations to reduce additional travel and risks if you prefer. We are able to turn things around quite quickly at the moment so please help to support your local businesses to get back up and running.
INTERNET
The upload facility on our web page are available 24hrs a day, 7 days a week. To use this service you will need to scan your photo or take a photo of it by using your phone. A great APP to help with this is Google PhotoScan app which is available at the Google Play Store. If you need help with any of this then please give me a call and I'll be happy to talk you through the process. There are details of the scanning requirements on our Photo Restoration page in the FAQs section.
COURIER
You can send us your photo via a courier service. Pass the Parcel is a very good service that will pick up from your home and take payment online. If you are able to visit the Post Shop then of course just pop your photo into a courier bag and let the lovely people at the Post Shop do the rest. Once your photo has arrived I can get to work on the restoration. I can also return the restore photos by courier as well.

If you multiply this number by any other number, the answer will always be the same. What number is this?
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
58.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.8% ... It is complicated
