An opportunity for local businesses

Diane Dickinson from Henderson Bowling Inc.

Henderson Bowling Club is fast approaching their 100 year milestone. We host member bowling tournaments, open tournaments and Auckland Bowls events that attract a wide range of people to our facilities. We also run social bowls events for local businesses and individuals. Our sport attracts people of different ages, ethnic groups and genders - and this is your opportunity to get you business name in front of them.

We have an opportunity for any businesses that want to get their name / logo / contact number in front of the people who use our Club. This not only raises awareness of you and your services but sends a clear signal that you support the local community in West Auckland.

For a one off payment of $500, you can claim a spot on one of our scoreboards for 5 years.
And let’s face it whether you’re bowling in competitions or socially, the scoreboard gets a lot of attention.
For any further information please contact me through Neighbourly or via the Henderson Bowls Facebook page.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
