Hi, We have a small re-cladding job to cover or replace Fibrolite in and around a front entrance to a house located in "The Gardens," Manurewa.
It's not a big job but is a bit tricky because of the shape. I'm currently thinking that Hardies Linea Oblique Weatherboard will be the best product for the job & we can supply everything required to do the job and the tools as well if need be. The job DEFINITELY requires building expertise & is not for the inexperienced. I consider myself to be a fairly competent handyman but it's beyond me!
Please phone Brian on 022 535 4954

In today’s rapidly changing environment, some of the biggest changes are the increasing legal expectations on boards and committees. The demands on governance boards of not-for-profit organisations have never been higher.
A key task for a board is to set up good evaluative and review practices to ensure the board and the organisation are doing the right things the right way and to the right standard. This includes increased financial accountability, compliance reporting standards, risk management and funding pressures.
This workshop will explore what the legal obligations of being on a governance board are. What do you need to know about limited liability for NGOs and where is the limit of legal responsibility as a board member? Discover some of the new obligations that have arisen such as the Health and Safety in Employment Act and the Vulnerable Children’s Act, changes to the Incorporated Societies Act and the (XRB) financial reporting standards, as well as how to manage cyber security and the risk of fraud.

PRESENTER: Carol Scholes - Threshold Management
DAY & DATE: Wednesday, 21 March 2018
TIME: 12.30-2.30pm
VENUE: Highland Park Community Centre
ADDRESS: 47 Aviemore Drive, Highland Park, Howick
