It's been a year since oyster parasite Bonamia ostreae was discovered.
Oyster farmers say they were just on the cusp of success when the industry collapsed.
But now they are looking to mussels for the answer.

Member Christine King (back row second from right) took out the Sandra Gould Memorial Trophy for the individual top scorer at the recent Southern Zone Women's Eights Tournament at Timaru, with an impressive 28 from the available 30 points. Close behind her were Alanna Moffitt on 26 points and Eileen Grant on 24. She was in the team that scored a back to back win by taking out the tournament for the second successive year, with 133 points to South Canterbury's 128.5. Southland scored 92, Otago 90.5, North Otago 55 and Central Otago 41. South Otago's points were the highest recorded for the two-day competition in the 21 year history of the competition. In mid June, the club will be choosing a team to play in the Paterson Trophy, which is contested by teams in regions in New Zealand, with the South Otago club playing host to the southern zone event at Balclutha in July 20-22. The national final will be held in September at Upper Hutt.

So now is the ideal time to make sure your home is as fall-proof as possible.
The home safety checklist will give you practical tips on how to make your home safe. It covers how to avoid slips and falls in the home’s most used areas. For example, paths can get icy in winter, applying salt or sand to your path can help avoid any icy slips.
Having a fall can be upsetting. Those over 65 have a one in three chance of having a fall, while those over 80 it’s one in two.
The good news is falls are preventable. A new movement called Live Stronger for Longer is helping to reduce the risk of falls by providing practical information and free resources. We want to help you stay on your feet, and living the life you want to live.
Take the home safety checklist with your friends and family and join the movement today.
Proudly brought to you by ACC, HQ&SC, MOH and your local community health providers.
