Heartbeats Heart Support and Education Charity is Coming to St Heliers
Over 12,000 people are admitted to New Zealand hospitals each year with heart attack, cardiac arrest or heart disease.
It is the silent killer of 10,000 Kiwis each year and affects all ages.
Heartbeats is a charitable trust, and non-profit organization that provides heart event survivors with support, education and referral to allied healthcare services.
It is community-based group, with over 200 members across Auckland and with four 'chapters' (local groups) operating on the North Shore, West and Central Auckland.
We hold regular informal, monthly group meetings and have guest speakers along to educate and advise: cardiologists, GP's. dietitians, pharmacists, health psychologists and physiotherapists/exercise physiologists.
We are looking to start a St Heliers/Glendowie group in June.
If you are a heart event survivor, or have a family member who is, please give Trent (Heartbeats Convenor) a call on 0220 606 199
It's FREE and everyone, of all cultures and heart conditions, is WELCOME.
Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕
Auckland has a thriving cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures across the country, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?

Sleeper planter refurbishment.
Howdy Neighbours
We came across these newish treated pine sleepers from TrustWood Timbers. These sleepless are great for your vege planters and general planting as the treatment used is safe for all plants and does not leach into the soil. Unlike Mac sleepers they come with a 50 year guarantee so they will outlast the more traditional Mac sleepers. Very straight and diamentionaly correct so great to work with.
We have just completed this job in Parnell using these where we have swapped out the rotten Mac sleepers for new TrustWood Sleepers 👍
