Last Call - Christmas Day Lunch Invite for our beloved Elders ❤️🎅
Closing invites on Sunday 15th December.
Howdy Neighbours :-)
My tween daughter and I (Single mum) would like to invite an elderly person or 5 into our home to share a meal together. (LOL So far we have 10 of us attending).
We are well aware that there are many out there who spend this Special day alone. This year, you don't need to.
Last year, on Christmas Day, we invited our Neighbours over, and ended up with 15 of us here. It was a wonderful time.
This year, our family are having an early, and a late, get together.
In the past, we have volunteered at the City Mission Dinners.
This year, it's all about YOU!! Our elders ❤️
If you are an elder, or you know of an elderly person or couple, who will be spending their Christmas Day alone this year, please get in contact with us for a chat. We would love to hear from you.
Come to our home. Share in some joy and have a few laughs over a meal and bubbles (Sparkling Grape Juice/Lemonade).
It is good for my daughter to see these things happen, and for her to take part.
So, who out there knows who our next guest may be?
Have a great day Neighbours. Safe travels.
To those of us who have loved ones who have passed on and won't be with us this year ...... *So close, not matter how far ......"
Peace, Love and Light xx ❤️🎅

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
