Here are some of the best ideas of summer living

Acacia Cove Village

A busy year to look back on and an exciting 2022 ahead. On behalf of the Team at Acacia Cove, the very best of wishes to everyone for a wonderful & safe days and months ahead.

Here are some of the best ideas of summer living.

Explore the local countryside:
The site of our retirement village isn't random – they’re inspired! Our village is surrounded by beautiful local countryside, so you can explore the area and enjoy the summer sun in gorgeous surroundings. You could take a morning walk, an evening stroll, or even a bike ride if you want to pick up the pace.

Good times with friends:
At our retirement village, we pride ourselves on creating a sense of community and bringing you to the heart of it. We have a whole host of activities on offer in the village center – which is perfect with music events and much more. What’s better than spending the summer months doing fun activities, eating good food, and lapping up the lovely weather with friends new and old.

First-class facilities:
Our retirement village has a variety of excellent on-site facilities to enjoy all summer long, including spa and restaurants. We also have a wide range of exciting activities to get involved in

Lock up and leave!:
With restrictions on their way to being lifted, holidays and trips away are – at long last – back on the cards. You can head out on your summer adventures knowing that your home is safe and secure in our village.

So here’s to 2022 and wishing you all a happy New Year! Find out more

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!

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
