Thanks to the brave and quick actions of these members of the public (pictured centre and centre right) – an offender who was trying to make a getaway after stealing money from a Henderson dairy was stopped and swiftly arrested. 👏

Earlier this month, one of the owners of the store was working behind the counter when a man entered the store and demanded money.

He walked behind the counter to the cash register and took a large sum of money, but the owner very quickly managed to activate the anti-theft smoke canon and the offender fled the shop.

Seeing what happened, the members of the public chased the offender and caught him, holding him until Police arrived soon afterwards.

He was then arrested and taken into custody.

A 40-year-old man has been charged with theft and was due to appear in the Waitakere District Court last week.

The money taken was returned to the dairy owners (pictured on the left), who were very grateful to those who stepped in to help.

A great result and example of people going above and beyond to look out for people in their local community.

We are a group of elderly women who knit blanket squares, jerseys, scarves, hats for poor people in Moldova and Romania and we are always looking for wool to keep us going. We knit and crochet for the group, 'Mission without Borders' , which is made up of people who want to help those less fortunate than we are in NZ. They arrange to ship the work when it is completed. It is a non-denominational organisation who want to share some of the abundance we have in NZ with people who are less fortunate than we are.
Please call me if you can help and I will arrange for pick-up. My number is 021-057-0371. Kind regards and thanks. Pat G.

We’ve been dreaming of relaxing at this colourful retro Kāpiti bach which features in our January issue. It’s the perfect sanctuary for its Wellington owners, who find themselves unwinding as soon as they walk through its front gate. Where's your favourite place to unwind over the summer?
