Be in the draw to win a $100 MTA voucher! Do our FASD survey!

The Team from Counties Manukau Health

Today is FASD Awareness Day. Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) is the most preventable cause of intellectual disability in the developed world. It is estimated that up to 3,000 babies live with FASD in Aotearoa/New Zealand.

To help inform our work, we would like to hear from you about what you think would work to support women to have an alcohol free pregnancy. Please provide your thoughts on two quick questions in the link below.

Each entry goes in the draw to win a $100 MTA voucher. The survey closes on Friday, 25 September.

To prevent FASD, say no to alcohol if you are trying to get pregnant, are pregnant, or could be pregnant. Support your loved ones and friends to think about their drinking if they could be pregnant, or to have alcohol-free pregnancies.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.

🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:​​
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes​​
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device​​
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.

If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
