Rotary and Life Flight Wellington

Michael from Tawa

Rotary Tawa had the pleasure of visiting Life Flight Wellington earlier this week—and what an inspiring experience it was!

Together with Rotary Karori and other clubs from across Wellington, we got a firsthand look at the incredible, lifesaving work the Life Flight crew does every day.

Did you know that Rotary was one of Life Flight’s early supporters?
In early 2023, the Rotary District 9940 Children’s Health Trust began discussions with the Life Flight Trust about how we could support their mission. That conversation led to a bold commitment: Rotary would raise $303,000 to help fund their vital work.

2 years in, and thanks to the generosity of many people and the dedication of clubs across our district, we’re proud to say that we’re already one-third of the way there!

This is a powerful reminder of what we can achieve when we come together for a cause that truly matters. Let’s keep the momentum going!

Ever wondered what it’s like to be a Rotarian?
If you’re passionate about making a difference in your community, meeting incredible people and having fun at events like this, then Rotary might be just the place for you.

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?

Poll: How important is the ability to book a doctor’s appointment online?

The Doctors

Hi Neighbours
Here at The Doctors we would love to hear how you prefer to book your doctor’s appointments. With busy schedules, different people find different methods easier.

For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.

Your feedback helps us understand what works best for our patients and how we can improve access to care.
