Heartbeats Sunnynook Meeting for Heart Patients

Trent Lash from Heartbeats North Shore

Heartbeats cardiac support group for Heart Patients and Heart Event Survivors meets at Sunnynook Community Centre this evening at 7pm.

Heartbeats is the largest community-led, peer-peer support group for heart patients and 'heart people' in Aotearoa New Zealand. We offer mental wellbeing support, education and cardiac rehabilitation to heart event survivors everywhere. We are a non-profit, friendly and diverse group with all sorts of heart conditions.

Come along, bring a family member or a friend and meet other heart people who have experienced the same thing as yourself.. Its FREE and everyone is welcome.

"I really appreciate the Heartbeats organization for the information available and the experiences and perspectives of others. It is a valuable resource especially with the public system under so much pressure, it fills a gap and brings a sense of humanity into the equation of heart health care and wellbeing." - KP (Auckland)

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
