More free stuff!
Last week we shared some free training and guides for you to use in your business. This week we thought we'd share some free tools to help you with some of the diverse range of tasks a business or organisation now needs to master -
~Design for non-designers
Canva is a useful tool for managing social media images, design of posters, leaflets and many other design tasks. Easy to use, it allows you to design from scratch (heaps of templates on the site) or modify an existing photo or design. That's how we quickly turned a generic photo into the bookkeeping image on this post. Check it out at www.canva.com...

Mayor’s use of poo emoji costs ratepayers over $4k
South Waikato mayor Gary Petley will make a public apology, and has sworn off social media after admitting he got it wrong when an online dispute turned sour.
A code of conduct complaint was made by Putāruru ward councillor Zed Latinovic in January after Petley reacted to comments made about council expenditure on Facebook by using the ‘poo emoji’.

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
