Mothers In Need
Hi Neighbours,
We desperately need your help and even if you can not help us you could share this so that it reaches someone who can!
We have had a huge influx in families this week and as a result our normal donated supplies are not meeting this demand.
over the next 2 weeks we need to source.
* 18 bassinets
* 19 capsules
* 8 convertible car seats
* 12 baby baths
* 25 single prams
* 8 double prams.
We are asking if you have any of these items as home to give them a little clean up and then bring them down to us at 6/42 henderson valley road otherwise, we can arrange for a pick up. If you are able to take the time to wipe them down and clean then up then it means they can go straight out to a family and possibly even on the same day! Thank you so much in advance.
Best way to use leftovers?
I'm sure you've got some excess ham at home or cold roast potatoes.

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
