Poll: FREE Healthy Homes Assessment ( Covering the Waikato)
My name is Kellah, i am a Healthy Homes Navigator from Vinnies Hamilton. I am currently seeking new clients to join our Healthy Homes programme. It is paramount that our homes are meeting the healthy homes standards, not only for ourselves but also for our Tamariki/ Mokopuna. A healthy home is beneficial because it reduces serious problems like;
Respiratory Health & Asthma
This programme is designed to work alongside our clients to ensure their home is warm and dry during the colder months. During our assessments we cover the 5 main elements such as ;
Insulation - Insulation is correctly fitted and complies with the healthy homes standards.
Heating - What sort of heating the client has in their home and how we can better their heating situation if it is minimal or restricted.
Draught Stopping - Any draughts in the home
Ventilation - Checking to see if clients are correctly ventilating their homes.
Moisture Ingress and Drainage - Recording any damages or repairs that need to be done.
We like to meet with our clients with a follow up appointment to go over our findings and work out where we can support them to get their homes to the correct standard of healthy homes compliance.
We can also provide these client with ;
Curtains
Power Switching
Draught Snakes
Food Parcels
Spiritual Guidance
Winter Warmers
We provide our clients with this support for as long as they need us, or until we are satisfied they are happy and content with their progress.

Family's fight to keep classroom killer behind bars
The murder of teacher Lois Dear in her Tokoroa classroom 18 years ago shocked the country.
Now, as her killer Whetu Te Hiko becomes eligible for release, her son, Kevin McNeil, vows to do all he can to keep him incarcerated.
What do you think of the mayor's suggestion?
Hamilton’s mayor wants to cut a 19.9% rates increase proposed for next year - and she’d support selling some city council asset sales to help.
Paula Southgate said she wants to pull the increase back towards the originally proposed 16.3%, which would be challenging but could make a $100-a-year difference for the average Hamilton home.
