Do you want help to harvest and donate some food to your neighbours and/or local food banks? Do you want to get to know your neighbours and help them harvest any excess food from their own properties? If you answer "yes" to any of these questions then please contact us at:ourfoodnetwork@gmail.com
Our "Ideas into Action Facilitator" (Niki Bould) is busy gathering names and addresses for our database so we can organise volunteers in each neighbourhood to harvest as much food as possible so it doesn't go to waste. We will be running some volunteer workshops soon (on how to make "apple-pickers", how to identify diseases in fruit, and providing some health and safety info) and hope this is a great way for neighbours to meet each other.

Shakti New Zealand was set up by women from Asian, African and Middle Eastern communities in 1995. Since its inception, women from these communities have worked tirelessly to create an environment that was empowering for women. They worked to create an environment where women could escape domestic violence and be supported in a non-judgmental way, strengthening them to build new future for themselves and their children.
The main activities involved capacity-building in partnership with local NGOs towards empowerment, advocating for suitable legislation for women and enabling establishment of refuge services. In 2017 funding for Shakti Wellington Refuge was categorically declined by the Ministry of Social Development despite this needs analysis.
In this talk, Ambika Kohli, Shakti Dunedin Coordinator, talks about the importance of access to life-saving culturally appropriate support services for migrant women. She address the issues of violence among the ethnic communities in New Zealand and will highlight the differences between cultural practices and cultural violence. In her presentation. Ambika will touch on burning issues such as female foeticide, female genital mutilation, dowry and forced marriages.

1. If you’re not using it, switch it off: If you’re not using an appliance, such as a heated towel, dryer, or TV, switch it off at the wall so it doesn’t use power on standby.
2. Change your cooking habits: Eat fresh veges instead of cooking. Using the oven for an hour a night can add $20 to your monthly power bill.
3. Use curtains to trap heat in: Let the sun heat your home during the day then close your curtains to stop the warmth escaping in the evening.
4. If you’re away, turn the hot water cylinder off: You can save up to $36 on your power bill if you switch your hot water cylinder off while away on weekends.
5. Make the most out of your FREE Hour of Power: Utilise power deals like Electric Kiwi’s free Hour of Power, which gives you one off peak hour of free power a day. Use this hour to heat your home, turn on the dishwasher, or run the washing machine and dryer.
