Keith from Hillcrest

I went back to my car and found a warning on my windscreen to say this is a private car park for Clyde street customers. Only and if I use it again I will be towed away or clamped. Then also on my windscreen is a ticket at 9.59 am for $65. I did intend to buy some bread from bakers delight but after the ticket I was not going to support the shops. Beware when using this car park. It is not P60 at all.

With warmer weather heading our way, gardening is a great way to stay fit and get regular doses of Vitamin D to help strengthen our bones.

The Home Safety checklist will give you practical tips on how to avoid falls, sprains and strains while pulling those stubborn weeds. For example, when you’re gardening avoid heavy lifting and use long-handled tools so you’re not bending over for long periods. Steady yourself when bending and standing, no pesky weed is worth falling for!

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.
