Please can people sign

Rebekah from Milson

Hi neighbours,

My name is Rebekah and I was newly diagnosed with Functional Neurological Disorder and Movement Disorder also. I was left by ACC with no income due to Winz criteria and also wheelchair bound.

I am planning to get this condition recognised as a physical neurological disability that doesnt go away. It isn't temporary to access funding and things.

I have a big heart and my aim is to get it recognised worldwide so people can access funding and more assistance and also not being told "they are mental, it's all in your head, it's your brain tricking you" it goes alot deeper than that. It causes physical symptoms.

Also fnd people have other conditions it isn't all related to fnd...

I have been rejected funding which resulted in mental health going downhill and also ACC putting it down as mental and dropping me this year. I had to self refer my physio as my dr did nothing because not many understand it. There also isn't enough knowledge therefore not enough help out there for us.

I would also like any that are diagnosed with this later in life to have no more mistreatment and disbelief as I have constantly and get access to funding and also make it viral so everyone knows it exists and it is very debilitating.

Please if you could sign it would really help ☺️

⚠️ 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 ❤️
