Ella Martin from Sustinnoworx

Do you want to get your wardrobe Winter-Ready? Do you want a fun activity for the family? Or do you just want to share a morning with like-minded people on a Saturday morning?
SUSTINNOWORX is holding a Recycle Market at Edmonton School on Saturday 18 June from 10am-2pm!
Sustinnoworx is an eco-store, preloved shop and training space based at 7/104 Central Park Drive. We pride ourselves in never dumping any of our excess stock; instead upcycling any clothing that is unsuitable to wear.

Help us to clear out excess stock and SAVE this good quality clothing from landfill by coming together for the planet at RECYCLE MARKET!

All clothing is only a gold coin donation, but that is not all that is on offer- fabric and haberdashery for the creatives, eco products, cultural cuisine and henna!

What are you supporting by coming to Recycle Market? Sustinnoworx is a social enterprise which exists as a training site for vulnerable women involved in the charitable organisation, Shakti. Shakti supports immigrant women effected by domestic violence, to safely reintegrate into society using housing, training and counselling. Shakti clients come to Sustinnoworx as part of their training, to learn retail, sustainability and upcycling skills. Through developing confidence, employability skills, English skills, and sustainability ideals, these women can integrate effectively and happily back into the community. Profits from preloved clothing, eco products and upcycled goods sold in the Sustinnoworx store go directly to supporting the housing and reintegration of these women.

We look forward to seeing you there!

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.

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 — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
