A small business loan helped Sandy increase the variety and volume of stock available for customers – ultimately boosting monthly turnover.

There is some writing on some of the blocks
Many of us grew up flocking to Glassons, Hallenstein's, Cotton On and Just Jeans for our hardy perennials - jeans, t-shirts, summer dresses - and some of us still do.
But we're increasingly becoming aware that buying a $20 t-shirt that won't last the distance isn't that great … View moreMany of us grew up flocking to Glassons, Hallenstein's, Cotton On and Just Jeans for our hardy perennials - jeans, t-shirts, summer dresses - and some of us still do.
But we're increasingly becoming aware that buying a $20 t-shirt that won't last the distance isn't that great for the environment.
While some of us are pledging to only buy second hand or to invest in statement pieces - more expensive items that will last a long time- not all of us have that luxury.
We're wanting to speak to someone who isn't giving up their fast fashion any time soon, whether it's for economic or style reasons, personal choice or indifference to the environment. Maybe you're a student who likes the choice chain store fashion brings, or perhaps you're a parent whose children are growing too fast to risk splashing out on expensive clothing.

The closure will allow investigation of the pool tank and reduce the risk of any unexpected findings and/or significant delays when relining the pool tank in the second quarter 2020. The pool tank is being relined due to a significant number of tiles failing, the cost of temporarily remediating the tiles, and customers and staff receiving regular cuts to their feet.
During the closure (23- 31 January 2020) the community is being encouraged to utilise the pools still available atJellie Park, visit one of the other Recreation & Sport Centres (Tairoa:QEII or Pioneer), or alternatively one of the Council’s outdoor summer pools.
All learn to swim classes will continue to be delivered in the outdoor 50m pool during the closure.
