Manukau East Shopping Shuttle
The number of senior citizens who find it hard to shop for themselves is on the rise.
MECOSS and Auckland Council have responded to this need by providing a subsidised shopping shuttle to Botany Town Centre or Pakuranga Plaza. Volunteers are on duty to run this Thursday-only, door-to-door pickup and return service. A charge of $10.00 includes the return trip, 2 hours of uninterrupted shopping and a free cup of tea or coffee.
If assistance is required, book a companion shopper or mobility equipment.
Please call 0800 632 677 by Monday to make a reservation for Thursday.

Missing cat: Cream
Hi there. We are missing our cat Cream. She has white long hair and blue eyes. She is very nervous and probably hiding under a deck or tarp or somewhere quiet. I think she was scared of the weather last night. That is when we saw her last. She has health issues and on a special diet. Please don’t feed her.
