queenb COVID-19 Update

queenb

The queenb team support the Government's decision to protect NZer's safety and well-being by imposing a business lockdown from midnight tonight 11.59pm 25th March, for at least four weeks. We are closing our offices and warehouse at 4.30pm today. Our showroom and shop have been closed since the announcement on Monday afternoon. We love our staff and customers and have been/are doing everything we can to keep them safe and well!

We have also been working as hard as possible to dispatch as many current orders as we can before we close this afternoon. Couriers are still considered an "essential service" and once the goods are shipped from our warehouse, they will still be delivered to you, even when we are closed. Please note there may be slight delays.

You will have lots of time at home to get your odd jobs done and renovate! Our website is still active to inspire you, and over this time orders can still be placed online at queenb.co.nz however no orders will be dispatched until we get the all clear to re-open.

We are still available via email for any queries you may have, and while there will be a delay in answering, we will do our best to get back to you in a timely manner.

Any existing orders not sent out by COB today will also be dispatched and delivered once the lockdown is finished and we are able to return to work.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused and will be in touch again once we have returned to operation.

The team at queenb wish you all the best over this time. Stay safe and look after each other.

Remember, we are very lucky to still have power, water and internet!

Keep well, keep safe.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? πŸ›»πŸš¨πŸš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

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 β€” and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
