Funding For A Scooter

Aaron from South Dunedin

Hi there fellow Dunedin people I have set up a Givealittle page to raise enough money so I can buy a 2nd hand scooter for my partner who has Episodic Ataxia Type II which means she has everything rolled into one package she gets blurred vision, migraines, she cant walk to far without her legs giving out on her, she also cant over exert herself without bringing on an attack.. We had loan of a scooter for a few months but unfortunately we had to give it back a month ago HENCE why I have set up this page so we can get something permanent I would appreciate it if any of you can help out as we don't have many friends or family that can help us we basically keep to ourselves so need the help of some generous people that are willing to help us further in our goal here is a link to the page.....

Be well and keep safe guys ...

Kind Regards,
Aaron

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

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 ❤️
