While driving around for work. I stopped at a red light. I was watching this asian(elderly) lady walking with her walker and struggling with a few shopping bags.

I saw people walk past her as if she was a piece of dirt.
So I did a u-turn.
I asked her if I could drop her home, she agreed. (turned out she only lived a street away) but that's not the point.
The point is..
Elderly people struggle to have a shower or to even go to the toilet.
For her she just went to buy her weekly shopping(still trying to be independent)
But with all this virus thing.
She was worn out today from shopping.
Everyone who's capable can panic buy.
But for her two pack of bread is everything for her for the next 2weeks. She will be on the sofa for one whole day recovering from that one walk and shopping.
Yes I understand we all have to be careful,
But dont forget to be humans.
And still watch out for one another.
Just because shes an Asian doesnt mean shes to blame.. ❤
Tomorrow, we will hold an emergency meeting to confirm arrangements to enable essential work to be undertaken during the COVID-19 crisis lockdown. Today, we have also extended closures of our network of facilities | OurAuckland
Now is your chance to get organised and come up with a plan for supporting your neighbours and keeping in touch over the next several weeks. We've come up with this 'Our Neighbourhood Plan' template to help.

As part of the plan - we need Street Captains in every street across Pakuranga who are willing to connect with everyone who lives in their street and be the point of contact for those who might need assistance, and helping to co-ordinate assistance whether that is doing the shopping for those who can’t leave home or just simply giving those who are lonely a regular call.
There might already be a Neighbourhood Support Group in your street - in which case your lead might like to register as the 'Street Captain' - or this might be a great opportunity to reignite your NSG.
If you can be a Street Captain in your street - please fill out the form at the link below.
COVID-19 is going to be a challenge for us all - but if we get together and support our neighbours and the vulnerable, together we will get through it!

A Street Captain will:
- contact everyone in their street.
- be the point of contact for anyone who might need assistance.
- help communicate any key messages to your street.
Simeon is then trying to organise "Suburb Captains" to support the "Street Captains".
The post is on his official Facebook page - www.facebook.com...
In it he links to this document where you can sign up if you're willing to be a Street Captain -

There are so many neighbourly people on here (haha pun intended) - it would be good to link with our local MP and make sure we're well organised and on the same page.
Went to Marina Thai in Half Moon Bay today for lunch and was VERY heartened by their approach to containing Covid 19. Hand sanitiser available, names and addresses taken AND cutlery wrapped in plastic.
Plus the food was awesome of course :)
Superbly maintained through Nissan Service Centre, sparingly used, ideal as a first car for a teenager, peace of mind. Contact for viewing.
Aucklanders who travel by bus will now have to use the rear door only to get on and off. The new di…
Good day, most JP's are unavailable and we need to get some documents certified ASAP. Does anyone know how or where I can get this done/or where this service is still available? Thanks in advance.
