Here's some ideas for ways you could get involved:

The options are endless! At the end of the day, our shared aim is to help bring people together by encouraging intentional connection with our neighbours. Whether that be organising a street party, sharing a cuppa, or simply saying ‘Kia Ora!” to those who live around you, every action helps to create a safer and more connected New Zealand.

Locally made products come with a whole lot of benefits - typically higher quality and greater attention to detail being in the top two.
The face behind the product had a dream of starting up on their own, knew in their heart of hearts it was a great product (or service) and believed it could help others. So, they took some risks, took over the dining table, made lots of mistakes, thought about the business day and night - but always kept going. Here are some decent reasons to shop local...
Boosting the local economy: Seventy per cent of all NZ Enterprises are sole traders. That's a big number. But purchasing locally doesn't just build an economic future for small businesses, it’s an economic confidence that spills out into other areas in life and the community.
Customer service: Buy locally and you are sure to receive a customer service above the ordinary. Plus, it's always reassuring to know you can call a local number if somethings amiss or not quite right.
Feel good factor: Knowing that your money lands in the lap of a local business with integrity and passion creates that lovely feel-good factor. You can see the love in the product, the packaging, the personal notes.
Customised goods = meeting consumer needs: More often than not you are talking to the maker directly so selecting a specific colour or changing out something is more likely to happen.

The Seated Photographers bring us a fun, thought-provoking exhibition that invites audience participation and shows us the view of everyday life from a wheelchair. Some of the photographers are experienced but many are novices who have found a love for photography as an exciting, creative outlet since being in a wheelchair.
Works on display are by local, national and international photographers.
The opening celebration will be on Sunday the 21st of February at 3pm and will be attended by the Deputy Mayor Michael Ford and Member for Rangitikei Ian McKelvie. Everyone is welcome to attend - we would love to see you there.
The exhibition runs to the 13th of March.

Found myself missing the touch tones, that satisfying ding when you gave it a slam. Man that ding was so satisfying, and I never knew I'd miss it.
Now you got to gently put your phone down lest it crack the screen.
I think that is rather representative of our world at the moment. In society, that there's just so many prompts in our daily lives that we didn't have before just a few decades ago, ones, that we've learned to give us pause like can't slam the phone now for instance or the expensive thing breaks. And the phone could represent how society is, not just more fragile but more sophisticated like that new smart phone.
Now and again I feel everything is too politically correct or for instance kids this generation are more sensitive than mine, like how everybody's offended about something. But I wonder if its less that they lost something I had that made me "Stronger" and more like, they have, or are more than I ever was, they may not be as solid as the old phones we used to slam but they are far more advanced and have so many more uses and capability, we just have to be careful with them like the new glass phones.
Anyhow, just found myself thinking and wanted to share.

I've recently returned home to Palmerston from Berlin (covid reasons) where I was playing as a professional musician and am available for some students.
I have a Bachelor of Music from the Jazz school in Wellington, further study in electronic music, record engineering and composing at Vicotria and I have been producing, composing, and gigging for about ten years in Wellington, Melbourne and Berlin.
I teach Jazz, Folk, Neo-soul, Blues and Rock guitar predominately, and am proficient at Ableton and Logic primarily but can operate and teach any DAW.
