Have you noticed the holes in the leaves of kawakawa?

Naturally Healthy

Don't be deterred! Those holes were made by the hungry caterpillars of the kawakawa looper moth.
Research suggests that chewed leaves actually have more active compounds.
Kawakawa is a powerful plant that supports your whole body! Which is why we use it in a range of our products.
We use kawakawa in our Wild Dispensary Golden Skin Oil to support healthy skin and skin repair.
Our Wild Dispensary Chest Tonic contains kawakawa to add to this formula's respiratory supporting actions.
However you choose to use it, we're very lucky to have this beautiful native.
Did you know this about the holes??

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Waikato Hospital needs to be open about mistakes

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

EDITORIAL: For all the travails assailing public hospitals, transparency should not be one of them.
Hospitals used to own up to their mistakes in a very public fashion. Each year they published a list of “Sentinel Events” — the most serious incidents involving patient harm.
That window of openness has slammed shut.
