Huge amount of wedding/function decorations

Nikki from Rothesay Bay

Hi neighbours, we got married at the local sailing club in may, and did a great dyi wedding.... beach, blue and silver theme for 50 or so people. We have a garage full of decorations that i spent a couple of years collecting would love to pass them on to someone else to enjoy, as i dont want to sell item by item on trade me. Its a great eclectic miss including large crystal vases, runners, sashes, candle holders, and so much more . Perfect for the sailing club venue we used. Perhaps someone else can benifit from all the hard work done by us and our friends or compliment what youve already got. Also have bridal shawls for the cold weather, wedding arch , fairy lights galore. Shelves full of good stuff .

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:

👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
