Donations for Upper South Island Floods
Remember when everyone has helped us Cantabrians during our darkest days with the quakes, fires, floods, mosque shootings ?
Here is our chance to uplift spirits in the Upper South Islabd without it costing a lot of money.
The ONLY items that are being accepted at all NEW WORLD Supermarkets in Canterbury and other businesses mentioned in the attached media release are:
A bought or handmade card ( do not seal envelope) a nice message inside
A packet of lollies or multi pack or chocolate
A knitted or sewn small heart / worry worm/ hug to fit inside envelope as a forever keepsake
These items will be distributed to the most severely affected families by Lions Host Nelson and Havelock Lions Clubs.
Please support this appeal. The recipients will be receiving these in approximately 3 weeks time as a wee pick me up to let them know that others have not forgotten about them.
If schools etc want to get involved please email us at giftsofloveandstrength@gmail.com
Thank you for your generosity and kindness.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
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?
-
31.7% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
68.3% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)

How much does it cost to join AEA?
There are no dues or fees for joining AEA or attending AEA meetings. We are self-supporting through our own voluntary contributions. At some point during each meeting we pass the basket to help cover expenses, such as the cost of rent and literature. Members are not obliged to contribute, but we usually do so to the extent we are able.
