Lap the Map for Diabetes
November is Diabetes Awareness Month, and New Zealand's Lions Clubs are calling all New Zealanders to help them "Lap the Map" for diabetes awareness. Can you help us walk a combined distance surpassing the perimeter of the NZ coastline (15,000km)
Our Lions Club will be hosting a family friendly walk of the New Brighton Pier on Saturday 16 November 2024 and you can join in the fun anytime between 10am and 2pm - don't worry you can do as many trips to the end of the Pier as you like. Your total km will all contribute to the ultimate goal.
We are not asking for money to participate but donations can be given if you wish.
Diabetes is a growing problem in New Zealand, so let's do what we can to prevent and research Diabetes and more importantly to raise awareness.
Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
